 My name is Sarah Hamden. I am the new managing editor at Protocol Labs and the team that I'm on is Spaceport. My name is Russell. I'm a software engineer on the IPFS GUI and Tools team. I'm Al from COI and we are an organization that works with the PL Network to build technology tools. My name is Derek Glover. I am Chief of Staff for Spice AI, which is a PL Network team. The Launchpad program helped us on board in an amazing way. I think without it I would have been lost for a lot longer. It helped with the technical aspect, so understanding that kind of language that for a non-technical person like me is so essential to a new role. Just getting to meet everyone that we've worked with and brainstorm different project ideas. As much as remote work is the norm, it's easier to build trust when you meet the other people face to face. There is something that cannot be substituted. There's lots of kind of side events that you get to go to, so you get to mingle and meet a lot of the other people in the network because the network is pretty big now. And it's a really good way of getting acquainted with all the little details of the technology stacks. You get to go through the program on demand, so you can watch video tutorials or read the modules on your own at your own pace. It's a wonderful way to get that foundation and a lot of the technical aspects of the job. It's amazingly personalized at the same time. Essentially onboarding opportunity to get involved with the Protocol Labs Network and really learn the underlying architecture and foundational technology that Protocol Labs is built on. I think Launchpad benefits the company and teams by exposing Launchpad cadets to the different teams that exist, giving them exposure first hand to new hires and what they're excited about and giving them exposure to current team members who have access to the day to day practices. So it gives a great view from new hires and existing employees. I think that the Launchpad program allows folks to quickly build some relationships within the ecosystem and the network as well as kind of understanding a bit of the ecosystem and a lot of the different types of things that are going on. So as they're either entering their teams or entering the network companies, they have some instant connections where they can kind of reach out across the lines and create some connections and maybe find some partners to work with or other teams where they may be able to kind of help solve problems together. I think Launchpad enhances the overall network because it brings in people that might not have otherwise had the opportunity to pursue Protocol Labs and a new perspective. The big thing about Launchpad that makes probably Protocol Labs one of the most competitive organizations in the space is that it's connecting all of these little pieces together and giving the network sort of a family feel. It means that instead of trying to solve problems by yourself, you're solving them with an organization around you that is really supportive. And the people that are in the program and running it have taken a lot of effort to find all the little details that you need to go looking for and then give you that information in an easily digestible way so that it's not just like a fire hose, which is really nice.
