Questions

Is membership really free?+

Yes. Joining North Star is free for everyone — student or professional. Newsletter, WhatsApp channels, weekly meetup, monthly workshop, member directory. No paywall.

Then what's Patron?+

Patrons cover the operations so North Star stays free. €10/month. You get a monthly behind-the-scenes letter, a quarterly vote on what we focus on next, and a heart on your profile.

Student or Professional — does it matter?+

It shapes what we send you and who we connect you with. Students get internships and student-specific perks; Professionals get peer events and partner intros. You can change this later.

What's the Weekly Meetup?+

Right after OpenLabs at The Vessel. Talk about the latest developments, what you're working on, and connect with the community — in person and online.

How do I become Exceptional?+

Contribute consistently — speak at events, organize meetups, mentor, write, bring partners in. The team notices, and you get invited. It's recognized, not applied for.
