Monday Motivation Coworking (MMC) is a virtual event built to help young entrepreneurs identify the next steps they need to take on their journey guided by a subject matter expert. Imagine you were sitting around a table having coffee with one expert and a few other hungry entrepreneurs!
On 8/31 our Monday Motivation Coworking community was joined by Jad Meouchy and Suzanne Borders, the Cofounders of BadVR.
