I would just like to add an additional comment: I would love to connect with you all at EthDenver and learn how to get involved & support H.E.R DAO! I think it is an admirable milestone that Harmony aims to get 150 women to ETH Denver.

I look forward to meeting you ladies and encouraging diversity in this space. I am here to help and support this DAO and would love to learn about any opportunities should they arise :+1:

Thank you for doing this.

Sincerely,
-Rachel :blue_heart:

H.E.R. DAO update

We had a very successful ETH DENVER with H.E.R. DAO hacking teams winning prizes and gaining investment.

We are just putting together a comprehensive report to follow shortly.

Also governor rotations are happening soon. We are utilising the consensus of the group and forwarding candidates who have contributed the most to H.E.R. DAO, and who are best placed to help the DAO transition into a fully decentralised sustainable community.

:blush::pray:
