The story starts back in 2013 when a group of us examined how they learnt and the impact in starting a new community.

We came to realise through our collective styles of learning and experience in other communities (Agile Sg and UXSG were heavy influences) we had some common goals that bridges across various disciplines.

Values
- Transparency
- Sharing + Collaboration
- Practical, tested, validated (pragmatic)
- Action bias
- Learning driven

Focus efforts/learning of this group
- Startup + Growth stages of a company
- Technology / IT / Product companies
- Bring up our own expertise first, coach others later
