FEATURED - BREAKOUT SESSIONS:
Our Tech Socials connect people in a comfortable, relaxed manner -  group conversations are aplenty at our in-person events. Online, the Breakout Sessions are small, group video chat rooms that emulate this where up to 10 people can be live on-camera at a time while anyone can join to listen in and contribute via the chat window. Join the breakouts in the first half hour as it features lighting fast SuperConnect* rounds to start sessions on the most popular & compelling topics. If you miss it, don’t worry, pop into the central breakout and see what’s hot!
* SuperConnect: On-camera, each person has 10 seconds to rapidly say 3 things: (1) who you are, (2) who you want to meet, and (3) one thing you care about -- it's a ninjafast way to get introduced to everyone.

WHAT FOLKS SAY: “Found a job” ↔ “Met my co-founder” ↔ “Met someone I eventually hired” ↔ “Got help to solve my security assignment” ↔ “Met some of my best friends in the industry” ↔ “Got a job! Went on the slide at the Masonic temple!” ↔ “Met unpretentious people who genuinely love what they do” ↔ “It was amazing! Learned a lot from people, and everyone is super friendly!”
