What Happened Last Week

Great morning spent with Rangga Husnaprawira, Chief Product Officer for Education at Indonesia's GovTech and our amazing attendees discussing trends in edutech! According to Rangga, AI application in classrooms and blurring lines between formal and informal education are on the rise. It was also great to see professionals from diverse backgrounds come together, united by their passion for edtech, sharing insights and making meaningful connections!

"In a world where everything moves at lightning speed, it's more important than ever to slow down when it comes to matters of the heart." Keep an open mind and go on at least 3-4 dates before saying No! Had so many amazing insights from Dina Lohan, Barbara Kavovit, Bershan Shaw, and Elizabeth Savetsky! Thank you, Kellie Ammerman (CEO of Tawkify, the #1 Matchmaking and relationship wellness company in America), for the fantastic moderating too! Also shoutout to Peoplehood, Cometeer, and Sanzo for your support!

Our momo friends had so much fun last week! Foodies explored Flushing's culinary scene, professionals enjoyed intimate dinners, and sports enthusiasts bonded over activities ranging from running to hiking. Not to mention the various practical workshops organized by the community and for the community, completely free of cost! Get the Supermomos App for exclusive access to these intimate events, and earn +100 momos for every new friend you refer via your unique referral link!

Hope to see you all at our events in the upcoming weeks! Host your own events too (from newsfeed tab, click the green + icon on the bottom right corner, and click "Create Social") and earn momos :)
