We’re thrilled to announce that BrainBox AI had an exceptional presence at this year's 24h Tremblant, a much-anticipated annual event that combines endurance, fun, and fundraising for a noble cause.
Despite the relentless rain, our teams put forth an inspiring effort, securing second place in the hybrid challenge and 33rd in ski – an apt testament to our commitment and hard work.
In an impressive display of stamina and team spirit, our hybrid team completed 139 laps, each 5.5 km long. This effort set a new record for BrainBox AI at the 24h Tremblant, covering a total of 764 km. On the ski front, our team showcased remarkable skill and endurance, completing 78 laps, which placed us 33rd out of 279 teams, a significant accomplishment in a highly competitive field.
Both our teams showed incredible dedication, not just in the challenge, but also in our fundraising efforts. We’re proud to announce that we raised over $18,000 in support of children in need in the Montreal and Ottawa regions, contributing to the event's grand total of more than $6.6 million.
"The impact of this fundraising is huge for so many sick kids. Talking with some of them during the weekend and hearing their stories made us forget all the rain and pain. Their strength is truly inspiring." - BrainBox AI CTO, Jean-Simon Venne.
Motivated by this year's success, we’re already looking forward to next year's 24-hour Tremblant challenge. “We plan to beat our record in 2024. I’m already training for it,” says BrainBox AI Marketing Manager, Gabriel Roy, “Our commitment to making a difference in children's lives continues to drive us. That and Laura’s epic spaghetti sauce.”
