🍻 Reboot Hour | The DMV's Tech & Community Happy Hour

Meet great people. Have meaningful conversations. Give technology a better next life.

Welcome to Reboot Hour—a monthly gathering for people across the Washington, DC region who enjoy technology, community, innovation, and making a positive impact.
We're building a community where people come together over drinks, conversation, and shared ideas—not because they have to network, but because they genuinely enjoy meeting others who care about technology and their community.
Whether you're a tech professional, entrepreneur, repair expert, student, sustainability advocate, nonprofit leader, maker, or simply someone who enjoys interesting conversations, you'll feel right at home.

No awkward networking.
No presentations.
No pressure.

Just a relaxed happy hour where good people connect over good ideas.

## More Than a Happy Hour

Reboot Hour is built around three simple ideas:
🤝 Meet Good People
Connect with others from across DC, Maryland, and Virginia who are passionate about technology, entrepreneurship, sustainability, and community.
❤️ Do Some Good
Have an old phone, laptop, tablet, charger, or mystery cable collecting dust? Bring it along (completely optional!). We'll help make sure it gets the best possible next life through repair, reuse, donation, or responsible recycling.
🚀 Discover What's Next
Every month features new conversations, new people, and new ideas—from emerging technologies and startups to repair, digital security, AI, sustainability, and the future of technology care.
