It’s with this philosophy in mind that we want to introduce to you our new initiative – Tech Lightning Talks that will help the software community to keep on growing.

Tech Lightning Talks in Apium Academy

Tech Lightning talks usually are informal talks of about 7 minutes where a person transmits knowledge of a particular topic and then there are about 2-3 minutes of questions. Our idea is to have approximately 3 to 6 talks with and then informal networking with beer when community members can meet new people, connect and continue discussing the topics thay are interested in.

Some specific topic would always be proposed in each session, based on current trends, latest technologies or interesting software topics.

In this type of talk, the only thing that the speakers will be asked to do is to send a brief summary of what they are going to present, it is not necessary to present slides, however if it is easier for the speaker to use visual materials, they are more than welcome to use presentation, live coding, etc.!

The main objective of “tech lightning talks” is to create a space where people are not afraid to expose themselves in public and share their software development experiences.
These Tech Lightning Talks events will limit the attendance up to 30 people in order to create an environment of trust and comfort for attendees.

Also, we created a Slack channel for Tech Lightning Talks, feel free to join it!
