Let's get together for a BYOB roundtable networking session - the spooky Halloween edition.

This is an open conversation about the current state of tech, in Berlin and in general, and we'd extra like to hear about what's spooky, and just getting to know like minded people.

This will take place at a bakery, with one large table and several small ones. You can choose to buy a drink and/or a pastry, as no refreshments will be provided.
