Your first meet-up

  • Someone meets you. A welcome buddy greets first-timers and makes introductions.
  • Pick your level. Groups are split by experience so you're never out of your depth.
  • What to bring. Business cards are optional. Come as you are, straight from work is fine.
  • Safe and friendly. Every meet-up has a named host and follows our code of conduct.
