|► WHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE:
Folks interested in tech. While this Mega Tech Social – North America Edition features our (surprise, surprise!) North American communities, all are welcome, regardless of geography. Starting at 8pm EST on Wednesday, July 15th, it is optimized for cities like Toronto, Mississauga, Kitchener-Waterloo, Ottawa, Montreal, NYC, Boston, and all other points close to the time zone – Vancouver, Seattle, Calgary, Edmonton, Dallas, Winnipeg, Phoenix, Salt Lake City, etc.

|► FEATURES AND WHAT YOU CAN DO AT HACKERNEST TECH SOCIALS:
Meet: Get chatroulette-matched 1-on-1s with other attendees // Chats & Messages: Chat up everyone // Breakout Sessions: Small group discussions // Expo: Cozy hangouts with sponsors

|► DETAILS ON BREAKOUT SESSIONS:
Tech Socials are famous for enabling super chill group conversations – we’ll try emulating this with breakout sessions (popular topics are on the schedule). Participate live (people can see and hear you) or just spectate – there’s a limit to live spots, but anyone can observe and contribute via chat. Some sessions may have moderators. Breakouts may organize by city (e.g. Toronto, NYC), industry topic (e.g. AI, remote work, Python), and in other non-salesy categories.

|► TECH SOCIALS:
The fun way to connect with the -actual- tech community. Down-to-earth and friendly, you show up, make friends, hear from quality people. Easy. We’re mostly tech folk, but all nice people are welcome. HackerNest has run 1,200+ events connecting thousands upon thousands of nerds in cities all over the world.

h4ck3rs. Hacks. Designerds. Data scienticians. Hardware engineerds. Developers. Venture ¢apitalist$. Venture communists. Entreprenerds. Killer robots. Sapiophiles. Social mediaphiles.

|► WHAT FOLKS SAY:

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!”
