Amidst the not-so-dimly lit corridors of the MBI incubator, an eerie atmosphere gripped the air as shadows danced and secrets whispered around the corner. Startup companies gathered, shrouded in costumes that concealed their true identities, each mask hiding the ambition and innovation that lay beneath. The flickering candlelight cast sinister shadows on the walls as we delved into a Halloween party like no other, where entrepreneurs became ghouls, and lab coats transformed into eerie cloaks of darkness. A haunting air of anticipation lingered, as we embraced the spirit of the season with a spine-chilling costume contest and partook in a wickedly delightful lunch. Yet, hidden beneath the tricks and treats was the potent magic of collaboration and innovation that thrived within the incubator, proving that even in the darkest of times, light and progress can emerge.
