Join us for our upcoming DeSciMTL X DeSciTO cross community event!

Decentralized Science (DeSci) is where the magic happens when research is done and knowledge is shared in ways that shift ownership and value away from industry intermediaries and into the hands of all active participants.

This meetup will dive into what this emerging Open Science/Web 3.0 movement is about and we'll be introduced to two active projects in the space: DeSciLabs and Gitcoin.

These events are all about getting people from different backgrounds, fields and regions together to have awesome discussions, mix things up, spark ideas and foster cutting edge innovation across the various STEM industries in Montreal.
