🎤 Share what you're building + Learn from fellow creators

Join us for an evening of tech talks, demos, and discussions about the latest in tech and AI!

What to Expect:

🎯 Lightning presentations: 10 minute tech talks given by community members. Talks can cover anything tech-related: demo your latest side project, share a technical deep dive, present your startup idea, or teach us something new like setting up a home server. This is your stage to share knowledge with the community!

🤝 Breakout discussions Show n’ tell: "What are you most excited about in tech/AI?"
Join a small group discussion where everyone shares what's capturing their attention lately - that framework you just discovered, the app you're building on weekends, or the AI breakthrough that has you excited about the future.

🍕 Pizza & networking: Connect with presenters and attendees after the talks

💡 Want to Present? We're looking for speakers! Share your project, tool, or tech insight in a 10-minute slot (6 min talk + 4 min Q&A). Reach out to organizers or sign up at the event.

✉️ Email the hosts at **octechlinkup@gmail.com** with your presentation. You'll be able to show this presentation on a projector for the audience. Your project does not have to be complex or even started. The goal is to share what you're working on with the community

📹 Video recording: We'll film your talks and the videos will be available on our website: techlinkup.org

Whether you're working on a side project, exploring new AI tools, or just curious about what others are building, this is your chance to share, learn, and connect with the local tech community. All experience levels are welcome!
