The 💜 of EU tech

The latest rumblings from the EU tech scene, a story from our wise ol' founder Boris, and some questionable AI art. It's free, every week, in your inbox. Sign up now!

Looks pretty simple to me.

Now, the operative question is, what this will lead to. I don’t really see a business model here. Maybe making deals with venues, but beyond that I think it’s a neat idea that might catch on and get the developers some attention.
