Asia Center For AI TalentWe’re not an org chart.
We’re a web of relationships.
Six kinds of connection — no center, no hierarchy. This page maps the people and resources we can bring together right now.

Not referees handing out scores, but people who give angels their wings. When you’re stuck, they walk with you for a while and get you safely to the next stop.
“Don’t worry too much about whether what you made is good. If you did the work today, that deserves recognition — full stop.”
