I'm proud to announce that The Things Network now has an official community in Bergen! And with 12 gateways already running in the area, it's safe to say that we have a flying start. Good work, everybody! But this is only the beginning – we can do so much more!

We can **bring the best people in town together** to exchange knowledge and ideas, which will hopefully result in beautiful projects and experiments.

We can **spread the word** to attract more people like ourselves.

We can **increase and expand The Things Network coverage** in the world's most beautiful city.

And we will for sure **have fun doing it.**
