Event Night: Lightning Talks & Talk Practice Night! @ Metis

Details

This is your chance to get on stage! This TUESDAY we're doing our semi-monthly ⛈Lightning⛈ Talks! ☈☔ in the 3rd Floor Commons area of WeWork NoMad.

What is a Lightning Talk?

A lightning talk...
• ... is a 5-minute talk on any topic, technical or non-technical (as long as its not a marketing pitch.)
• ... can be given by anyone, even someone totally new to Python! (Share your experiences learning Python!)
• ... often about something cool you just learned or some open source software you wrote.
• ... but doesn't need slides and doesn't even need to be prepared!
