Every mother has a favourite. But at Mama Shelter, it's every ARC member.
We're excited to announce our partnership with Mama Shelter Singapore, a playful, design-led urban hotel made to feel like a home away from home.
What's interesting are their core concepts and values: dynamic spaces for you to relax, work, eat, meet and greet. 5* luxury bedding, organic solid amenities, thoughtfully prepared homemade food and free movies.
With this partnership, ARC members will enjoy preferential rates for both the hotel and the F&B.

Malaysian Stellars, this one's for you.
@Nibel_eth says he has "worked very hard to push Malaysia as like the center of builders in Asia", and Base runs a founder residency of about five teams a month with pre-funded Network School slots.
He gets into it with @seeksahib at 10:36 and 18:08.
Tag a fellow Malaysian builder who should hear this.

Sat down with @Nibel_eth, APAC lead at Base.
Had him on The Based Show to speak about his journey from Wall Street to the trenches, and where Base is heading next.
8 years in banking at JPMorgan and Citi. A founder in Web3, and one of the first Singaporean builders on Base.
Around 85% of all x402 transactions now run on Base.
Now he's leading the push to make Base the home of the agentic economy, where the next billion economic actors are agents.
Nick is one of the sharpest operators I've sat with on where AI and onchain finance are heading.
Full conversation below.

To kick off our partnership with Royale Pilates, we brought members together for a Reformer Pilates class at their TRX studio in Kuala Lumpur.
Part of building ARC is creating more opportunities for our members to spend time together. You might first meet someone through their business, then get to know them properly over an afternoon like this, between groans and the shared realisation that everyone might struggle with the stairs tomorrow. 😎
Shoutout to the Royale Pilates team for hosting us and giving our Malaysian members a new way to spend time together!
If you enjoyed the session and are already thinking about round two, here's a reminder that your ARC member discount applies to eligible classes and packages at all three Royale Pilates studios. Maybe bring a fellow Stellar along?
