This journey has reached its end. We thank everyone who was a part of Athena for their invaluable contributions to this project.
Athena is a service to allow people to discover events, competitions and conferences based on their interests, rather than their existing social circle.
If you have any concerns or have any suggestions as to how we can do better, do let us know at developersatathena@gmail.com
