The Mu is one of the longest running popup village organizers. They originally ran popups in emerging economies with a focus on bringing blockchain opportunities to those locations. Their most recent iteration is focusing on robotics and AI and creating a bridge for people who want to experience China.

The Mu community prioritizes open source development, a doer mentality, long-term thinking, and positive-sum outcomes. Events connect global participants with local tech ecosystems through unconference-style workshops, factory tours, hackathons, and cultural immersion.
