Can MoTaCon be part of the MoTaverse Festival? 🤔

We currently have the following satellite events happening during MoTaCon week: 


Would you like to host one too?
Going forward we'd love to have member-led focused gatherings. 
The day before, MoTaCon day (8pm onwards), or the day after.

We'd love to have more dinners too, but that would require a sponsor to foot the bill, or perhaps the willingness to pay your own way. Reach out if you think your company could be a good fit.
