This months presenters span the phyisical globe and the scope of problems they’re tackling. We have one startup from France, one from Russia, one from the Y-Combinator, and one startup that we’ve been looking forward to decloaking and we’re honored they’ve chosen STIRR as their first venue to engage the public.
