LOS ANGELES, Jan. 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Legacy Lab, Team One’s award-winning think tank and strategic consultancy, has announced the recipient of its sixth-annual The Legacy Lab Foundation Scholarship. Launched in 2019, the $15,000 scholarship seeks to champion students who represent the next generation of legacy-makers and future leaders dedicated to making a lasting social impact in their communities and beyond.
“Our team was inspired by the breadth and depth of submissions we received this year from outstanding students across the country,” said Mark Miller, Chief Strategy Officer at Team One and Founder of The Legacy Lab. “Learning about these students, and the work they are putting into creating innovative business solutions, reminds us of the importance of investing in today’s youth to help yield better solutions for today, tomorrow and always.”
The latest Legacy Lab Foundation Scholarship recipient and Rising Star honorees represented a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds and interest areas including business administration, music engineering and production, environmental studies, anthropology, social studies, higher education, and mental health awareness. All recognized individuals have found inventive ways to harness their passions for the betterment of society.
JahWill Fannings, this year’s Legacy Lab Foundation Scholarship recipient, is a fourth-year Business Administration student at Georgia Tech. Fannings founded Flowst8, a music production venture inspired by his love for the music industry. Determined to address recurring challenges in the production process, he created an AI-powered productivity tool for music creators, aiding them in channeling their creative energy, maintaining productivity, and enhancing their workflow without disrupting the creative process. He also works as the lead mixing and recording engineer at Jah Studios, a recording studio in Atlanta, GA. In between coursework and supporting talented artists, he continues to refine his craft as a music producer and singer-songwriter.
“Receiving The Legacy Lab Scholarship has signified a pivotal moment in my academic and entrepreneurial journey. Without this support, completing my education at Georgia Tech would not have been possible. This scholarship has given me the hope and confidence to pursue my dreams without the overwhelming burden of financial debt. I can now focus fully on my studies and mission to innovate the music industry through Flowst8, knowing that I have the encouragement and support of The Legacy Lab Foundation behind me. I used to view scholarships as unattainable, or something created for students with more traditional goals, but this opportunity has changed my mind. You never know how much a step like this could change your life.”
In addition to Fannings, The Legacy Lab and its judging panel also recognized three Rising Star honorees:
