What we’re about
Welcome to the only Meetup group in Brisbane dedicated to mobile app development for Android, iOS and Cross Platform.
Every two months or so we meet to listen to news, insights and presentations from industry leaders. We also showcase member projects, both professional and personal.
Our meets are also a great place for developers or anyone interested in the mobile app and startup communities to network, collaborate on projects or seek career advice and opportunities.
Whether you are a developer, engineer, designer, project manager, MBA, cyber security professional or entrepreneur, this group is for anyone with an interest in mobile applications.
When meeting IRL is an option again - each year with support from Queensland University of Technology we also run a hackathon that is not to be missed.
This annual event sees teams building a functioning prototype app (either Android or iOS) for a Brisbane startup based on their real world needs and judged by industry experts. It’s a great opportunity to work on a fun project, win great prizes and give students in particular a wonderful insight into what it takes to take a project from idea stage and get it into the market.
Recordings of the talks will be posted on Youtube whenever possible:
