Pelham residents Dennis and Julie Roche first briefed Burbio, a digital tool to synchronize and manage school, sports and other activity calendars for families and businesses, in February 2014 at Serendipity Labs. After a year of beta testing the MVP, they went live and have since enhanced Burbio with advanced capabilities. With a recent funding round, the team is actively developing the next version of Burbio to launch later in 2016. Congrats Burbio! -------------------------------------
