So we’re in the final sprint towards the official launch of Spot The Future when this thing kicks off for real. We’re on TV in Georgia, the post submitted by Christina about the work they were doing with hackathons in Tblisi lead to them being contacted for a collaboration. The level of activity is already unprecidented for a project that hasn’t actually started yet.
Edgeryders is all coming together, inspiring one another and helping each other live up to our full potential. And when we move together, things happen. So if you want to push the boundaries of what we can achieve together there is no better time to get started!
