The Keystone Episode #1 — What is an ecosystem builder?
Hello! My name is Yuval Yarden, I’m the host of The Keystone, and this is the very first addition of The Keystone show notes where we list all the resources (and sprinkle in a few additional ones) so that you can continue your exploration and connect with the people you heard from on the show!
Our goal with this episode is to share our vision for this show, and level set with a few definitions and some background about the field. If you haven’t listened to the episode it’s self, we recommend that you start there.
