👉 What are Lightning Talks?
Lightning talks are short, fast-paced presentations lasting around 10–15 minutes each. They're designed to share an idea, demo, project, lesson learned, or technology in a concise and engaging way.

Instead of one long session, you'll hear five diverse talks covering a range of topics—from AI and databases to developer tooling, business insights, and Microsoft 365. It's a great opportunity to discover something new, pick up practical tips, and hear from members of the local developer community.

Whether you're looking for inspiration, want to learn about new technologies, or simply enjoy chatting with fellow developers afterwards, Lightning Talks Night is always a fun, varied, and relaxed evening.
