Overview

Body
Magaly Chocano, CEO of Sweb Development

Often, whether we’re just starting out in the entrepreneurial world or we’re veteran executives launching a new venture, there’s this niggling suspicion that our end goal—our vision—might just be impossible. Fortunately, Magaly Chocano’s journey has proven time and again that, with the right drive and the right approach, nothing is as impossible as it seems. 

Magaly is the CEO and founder of Sweb Development, a full-service digital agency that offers creative digital strategies, branding, digital design, web development, mobile app development, and social media marketing. More recently, following her own radical fitness transformation, Magaly launched “The Good Guilt,” an athletic wear company dedicated to empowering women to put themselves first and embrace their strength, fearlessness, and power. 

We are thrilled that Magaly will be joining us to share how her entrepreneurial journey, and the lessons she’s learned along the way, have taught her how work against all odds to make the impossible, possible.
