Running, facilitating and speaking at Melbourne Developer Meetup (2013-2015)

I had the opportunity to host my own meetup in Melbourne, Australia. I called it the Melbourne Developer Meetup and we hosted all kinds of developer related presentations.

Melb Dev Meet now has a new life with Hamid as Melbourne Web Mob. You can find the Melbourne Developer Meetup / Melbourne Web Mob on Twitter and Meetup.com.

Our little community was most active from 2013-2016, and below are the meetup highlights from 2013-2014.

One meetup (xmas party) to rule them all!

Thursday, December 4, 2014

We're joining forces with a number of meetups:

Melbourne Developer Meetup [~30 Spots]
Infrastructure Coders (https://www.meetup.com/Infrastructure-Coders/) [~40 Spots]
Android Australia User Group Melbourne (https://www.meetup.com/Android-Australia-User-Group-Melbourne/) [~40 Spots]
Melbourne Tessel Enthusiasts (https://www.meetup.com/Melbourne-Tessel-Enthusiasts/) [~5 Spots]

There will be great prizes on offer. Food and drinks will be provided by our sponsor Odecee, who have also organised a great venue for us, with plenty of capacity for a large group and a Grand Prix training simulator for your entertainment!

We'll be showcasing what each meetup is all about, with the chance to get to know a little more about your fellow meetup organisers and members. Most importantly we're wanting to wind down and reflect on a spectacular 12 Months with good (and a little geeky) company.
