ODF and Merge Club are visiting Waterloo from SF for the Socratica Symposium — and we want to hang out with you! Join us (Julian, Noémie, Brayden ⁂, & Gu) for a cozy hangout + coworking café in a beautiful home right on the edge of Waterloo Park.
This event is suuuper casual — expect great coffee, greater people, and the greatest of times. Don't pull out your LinkedIn. Please.
We're giving out grants — zero strings attached!
Merge Club gives microgrants ($100-$1k) to technical projects – with no strings attached! We want you do to be able to do your best work, and if finances are a barrier to your tinkering, we want to help! Non-dilutive, no equity, just the cash you need to make it happen.
Some grantees include:
Yoyo Yuan in SF who’s developing neuron-based computing
PhD drop-out Jackson Yip building AI models and hardware to solve the wildfire crisis
Hector Gomez who’s using neural machine translation models to save the 7,000+ endangered and digitally disadvantaged languages
