⚐ About Us

Bimonthly meetups that bring together people from a variety of backgrounds work with, want to learn about, or meet folks interested in the peer-to-peer (p2p) and decentralized web (dweb) as well as alternative networks. Some examples of projects include Beaker Browser, Dat, Secure Scuttle Butt, IPFS, mesh networking, and more... We want to grow a community of folks interested in these topics here in Toronto who also want to have conversations that address the possibilities for building more sustainable, just, and equitable networks with this tech. Technologists welcome, but you don't have to be one to attend. Come and join us!
