MakersLounge Toronto Meetup #6
βMakersLounge Toronto: The Match Edition π€
βWe canβt help you find your soulmate, but we can help you find your skillmate. We want to match you with someone who has the skills you need, and someone who needs the skills you have so you can exchange skills, expertise, resources, and connections so you can get rid of any bottlenecks.
