What we’re about
PhilaCon Valley is a vibrant tech meetup in Philadelphia centering Black, Brown, LGBTQIA+, and underrepresented folks in tech.
Whether you're learning to code, changing careers, or already in the industry, this space is for you. We’re building a community where we can learn together, grow together, and create real opportunities to develop as developers.
We believe in hands-on learning: lightning talks, pair programming, creative coding, workshops, and projects that help folks actually build experience and confidence.
Expect good vibes, real talk, resource sharing, and space to bring your full self.
Our goal?
To make Philly the tech hub it’s meant to be: by us, for us.
