Our community is sharp, and they are great problem-solvers and have great analyzing skills. As a community, it’s our responsibility to nurture that drive and create space and resources for these individuals. We are stoked to contribute to the ecosystem of innovation, and to do this in collaboration with Sting.” Said Neda Khezerian at Changers Hub.
