This is so good, looking forward to it. I had a great time sharing at the last one about our MH startup Lateral, which happened to take place while I was at EAG Bay Area. It's so important we all get to know each other and see what's going on in the space, please come and say hello in the EA Gathertown mingle time if you have an interest in MH research and/or scaling local community teams in SE Asia or South America (remote or in the field or both), we will hopefully be hiring soon, and could also enjoy getting to know you in our current pre-funded era. We really need thinkers who want to figure out how to reach the Billion people who have no MH care near them. (Also, it might be helpful to make sure you can figure out how to get into EA Gathertown in advance if you've never been there before :) Thanks to the organizers.
