Mumbai, we're coming.
Last week in Bangalore, we got to experience the energy of the MCP community in India firsthand.
We met incredible builders, had great conversations, welcomed new faces into the community, and saw more excitement around MCP than we could have imagined.
The best part?
"MCP to the Moon" was in every room and conversation.
Now we're bringing that same energy to Mumbai. And this time, we're showing up with even more surprises.
Let's send MCP a little closer to the moon. ๐
