Come to meet people from the local software development industry. We'll share tips and stories and find out who's doing what in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland. Make those network contacts that are so essential in our careers.
Each meeting opens with a short technical presentation to kick off our discussions. Then, following Q&A and possibly a door prize draw, we have our round-the-room introductions and open networking.
For the introductions we invite all participants to introduce themselves and to let us know what they'd like to talk with others about. This is when connections are made so think about what you would like to say beforehand, especially if speaking in front of a group seems difficult.
Of course our "network" is about more than just our meetings. Beyond our members' personal networks we have an opt-in mailing list plus our groups on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Yahoo! See our About Us page at http://softwaredev.meetup.com/17/about/ for more details.
We don't have a room booking yet so the date may change but in January we tentatively have Stephen Swift of SOC Robotics, Inc. presenting on one of his many projects. Stay tuned for updates...

What members are saying
“ The presenter for the topic of the meeting was a good speaker. He could have explained it a bit more from a broader perspective and slowly narrowing it down which he did to a degree. ”
“ To meet other developers. ”
