About us
The Wisconsin .NET User Group was founded on February 12, 2002 at the launch of Visual Studio.NET. Our mission from inception has been to develop a peer group of developers, architects, and managers who are interested in learning, sharing and growing their Microsoft .NET knowledge and capabilities. The group's vision is to provide members with a forum to hear top industry experts speak, learn and teach others who are interested in the same technologies as you and are facing the same challenges.
The Wisconsin .NET User Group covers the entire spectrum of .NET technologies, including the Windows Server System, XML web services, application development with Visual Studio.NET and the .NET Framework (including web, mobile, and desktop applications.) We are proud to now have over 3,000 members and we have continued to grow stronger each month due to the well-known .NET expert speakers we bring each month, the support of our growing list of sponsors, and the input and interest of each of our members.
The Wisconsin .NET User Group's sole purpose is to bring technology and business people together who are interested in .NET technologies. In the pursuit of this purpose, we strive to bring interesting speakers to talk on interesting topics in a monthly meeting format. We also highly encourage interaction between members, so we can all share our experiences and learn from each other. It is this community orientation that brings us together to develop and deliver the best applications to our respective employers, customers, and ourselves.
Come join the .NET community - It's FREE - It's FUN - It's a great way to learn more about .NET!

Stop Prompting and Start Coding with your own AI Dev Team Squad
Concurrency, Inc., 13600 Bishops Ct Suite 250, Brookfield, WI, USMost developers are still treating AI coding agents like an order taker — one prompt, one response, one task at a time.
Squad changes that. It's an open-source framework that gives you a coordinated AI development team — a lead, a frontend dev, a backend dev, a tester — living directly in your repository as plain files. Need a DBA? A security reviewer? Hire the AI team member built for the job. They share decisions, learn your codebase, and work in parallel.
You'll see:
- How Squad agents are wired together and why they don't step on each other
- The plan-first workflow that keeps you in control without slowing things down
- Directives — standing rules you say once and the team follows forever
- What happens when you hand off a complex feature and just watch
Speaker: Jason Von Ruden is the President of the Wisconsin .NET User Group and who uses AI-assisted development workflows daily on production projects. Lately, he brings real-world experience integrating AI agents into enterprise codebases.
