<p>As you can see based on the definition we know a little about this 😉</p>
<p>Many of us technically are competitors but we’re friends first. Some of us still do collaborate on projects together, we still recommend each other’s products, and heck! we even started a podcast together <img decoding="async" class="emoji" draggable="false" src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/2.2.1/svg/1f64c.svg" alt="🙌" /> So this week we&#8217;ll talk about the benefits of coopetition for you, your competitor, and your industry in general.</p>
