Let's Connect: Speed Networking for Builders

What is Let's Connect?
Let’s Connect is a beginner-friendly community space designed to bridge the gap between technical builders and creative thinkers. Whether you are a developer looking for a project or a non-tech founder with a great idea, this is the place to meet your future collaborators.
To make networking easy and awkward-free, we use a speed networking format. You will rotate through short, focused conversations, ensuring everyone gets a chance to connect with everyone.

What do you get?

• 🤝 Structured Connection: No awkward standing around. We guide the rotations so you meet everyone.
• 🚀 Community Building: Expand your network with local devs, designers, and entrepreneurs.
• 💡 Idea Sharing: A safe space to discuss your concepts, showcase your skills, or find inspiration.
• ☕ Complimentary coffee and decaf

How much does it cost?
💲 General Entry — $5 (2 hours)
Covers space and refreshments. Think of it like buying a coffee, but instead of just caffeine, you’re gaining valuable contacts and potentially meeting your next co-founder.
