We built CodeBoxx on a simple belief: that the right training, the right community, and the will to show up every day can open doors that once felt impossibly out of reach.

George and Kazzy are what that belief looks like in real life.

Both CodeBoxx graduates. Both now software engineers at eBay — on the same team, building the tech behind eBay's Authenticity Guarantee program for high-value items.

Nobody handed them anything. They put in the work, trusted the process, and came out the other side as engineers.

That door is open for the next person too.

Day one. ☀️

This morning, 11 new students logged into their very first CodeBoxx standup — the same daily ritual our entire community runs on. And just like that, 11 more people chose to bet on themselves and on tech.

We don't take that lightly.

There's something about watching a cohort come together for the first time — different backgrounds, different cities, same fire. We get to be the place where that fire finds direction.

We're honored to call spARK Labs by ARK Invest home — an innovation hub in St. Pete built for exactly this kind of moment: people gathering to shape what the world has yet to imagine. That energy doesn't just surround our students. It gets into them.

To our 11 newest students: you belong here. The hard days are coming and you're going to get through them. We're with you every step.
