Also, we at our team want to thank everyone for attending Grep-a-Palooza 2026 last week! That’s why, at the beginning of every week, we’ll be keeping you in the know with your own Monday Mix [https://pod.co/the-grepbeat-podcast]: a curated look at the week ahead in GrepBeat and North Carolina's tech communities.
