Engage with more tech folk.

Just like our community events that bring people together, our recruiting and marketing events resonate with guests because we encourage and indulge in that down-to-earth vibe, perfect for grassroots connections in the -actual- tech, developer, and startup ecosystem.

(Our events have gone online-only due to the pandemic. Indefinite hiatus for all in-person events.)

Authentic engagement with online events that compel engagement and bring back that in-person feel, safely … from anywhere.

Reach a larger captive audience and community while retaining that familiar, we’re-all-nice-here, laid-back feel that doesn’t subtract from attracting quality people you seek.

Recruiting

Companies hiring for multiple teams covering a broad range of technical and non-technical roles will benefit from their recruiting, developer, and operational teams being able to engage with guests and showcase their offering, people, and culture in myriad ways.

Marketing

Your city, country, region, or company is championing entrepreneur & startup visa programs, immigration & travel campaigns, or has a product line, service offering, workshops or bootcamps that are perfect for our tech, developer and startup community to explore.

Team Tickets
