PDX Code & Coffee - Beaverton @ Fly Chai

Code & Coffee is an inclusive, informal co-working session: drink your beverage of choice, bring your laptop, and hang out with your peers! Have engaging conversations, or focus on work or projects. This is a great opportunity to learn from others, share your knowledge, and possibly collaborate on side projects, online courses, or even your day-to-day work.

---- Schedule ----

You're welcome to drop in anytime during the event. We understand that everyone may have external commitments and challenges - join us when you can!

We have informal unscheduled introductions - practice your personal elevator pitch, or take things slower to build your confidence.

---- Venue ----

Fly Chai allow us to informally and freely use their space. If within your budget, we'd appreciate your help to sustain our use of the venue, by purchasing something tasty, whether Chai or otherwise.

Find us at tables with a Code&Coffee sign - or a clump of laptop-users!

Wifi and power outlets are available.
Our meeting area should be accessible - please let us know if not.

---- What to expect ----

Smaller events than you may be used to, with a mixed crowd week-to-week. We expect this is likely due to us meeting weekly, at a less central location.

These may result in what you're looking for:

• A smaller, less intimidating, lower pressure, cozy atmosphere.
• A mix of regular and new faces.
• A simpler schedule - every week, same time, same place - that you can drop into when you like.
• Being closer to you than other events.

Whether those are generally or partly to your liking, we hope you'll consider dropping by sometime!

---- Getting to the venue ----
