Peer Beer

Hi hunters 👋, I’m super excited to launch Peer Beer today! With the start of COVID-19, I suddenly found myself working from home. WFH is pretty amazing and I definitely won’t go back to the office full-time, but it can also be quite isolating. Suddenly, interactions with colleagues became pretty transactional and it has become quite rare to meet new people. On top of all that, all the meetups and hackathons are cancelled so it has become even harder to meet other makers. For me that’s really harmful, as my biggest inspirations are makers. People who have crazy ideas and design, build and ship awesome products. Nothing is more valuable to me than to chat to makers, hear about their ideas and stuff they are making. I kinda built Peer Beer to solve this problem for myself, and I hope it’s also valuable for others! We want to provide you with those serendipitous meetings with other makers and allow for meaningful, fun and inspiring conversations. It’s quite simple, after you subscribe you will receive an introduction to another maker twice a month. To help you have a fruitful conversation, each introduction includes ideas to kick-start the conversation and to help you have a meaningful and valuable chat. Peer Beer is for makers only! You’ll find all kinds of people from different backgrounds, countries and industries, but all members are excited about building stuff. Chances are that they have a background in product, design or code, but some of them might also be building hardware! Super excited to hear what you all think, and happy to answer any question, and get your feedback! Cheers, Jishai

I absolutely love the idea of destroying the traditional "network" process and breaking the boundaries of limitations to meet new people and learn tons of new things. As a PMM, I think it's crucial to know how other PMM's work, their thought process, past tests and experiments, and so forth. I also want to see if I can make some new collaborations!

awesome, i love working from home, but i was missing the socialising. this is very exciting for me and i can't wait to get to talk with other makers!

Was really fun trying this out, It's much nicer to meet people on 1:1 basis as we can openly share challenges and talk about future plans. The web app already connected me to other professionals from my industry! #grabapeer

Absolutely LOVE this idea. I especially like the fact that there's an element of surprise involved. It's networking made easy and fun!

Very cool!! Especially these days, where all social gatherings are remote / less common, this is super relevant! Makes it much easier to come across people like you that are having similar challenges or questions, connect and share the knowledge!

Elegant minimalist approach to a relevant problem. It shifts focus back to the experience and emphasizes the value of an individual connection. Through artificial scarcity, maybe, but, hey, if it works, it works. I look forward to using it.
