A Sibiu IT initiative

Tech Meetup

Discover concepts presented by professionals in the field, connect with other technology enthusiasts and grow your knowledge in a friendly, open setting. Let’s inspire each other and grow the local IT community!

The format

One evening a month, in two parts.

01

Talks

We hold monthly meetups for Sibiu’s technology enthusiasts: engaging technical talks focused on relevant concepts, plus talks on soft skills. Our goal is to bring the local community together, with chances to learn and collaborate in an inspiring setting.

02

Networking

After the talks comes a relaxed, friendly networking session. Meet the speakers, ask them questions, or talk to the other participants. We encourage natural conversations and genuine connections - the basis of a strong community.

Speakers

Want to share a topic you are passionate about?

Speak at Tech Meetup Sibiu and establish yourself as a leader in the tech community.

You will sharpen your communication skills, make valuable connections and open up new professional opportunities. If speaking in front of people makes you uncomfortable, we offer public speaking courses to help you get past the fear and speak with confidence.
