Current Events Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay tech, entrepreneur, and nerd events (Week of Monday, October 3, 2022)

Post author By Joey deVilla
Post date September 30, 2022

Here’s the list of tech, entrepreneur, and nerd events for Tampa Bay and surrounding areas for the week of Monday, October 3 through Sunday, October 9, 2022.

Every week, with the assistance of a couple of Jupyter Notebooks that I put together, I compile this list for the Tampa Bay tech community.

As far as event types go, this list casts a rather wide net. It includes events that would be of interest to techies, nerds, and entrepreneurs. It includes (but isn’t limited to) events that fall under the category of:

Programming, DevOps, systems administration, and testing
Tech project management / agile processes
Video, board, and role-playing games
Book, philosophy, and discussion clubs
Tech, business, and entrepreneur networking events
Toastmasters (because nerds really need to up their presentation game)
Sci-fi, fantasy, and other genre fandoms
Anything I deem geeky

By “Tampa Bay and surrounding areas”, this list covers events that originate or are aimed at the area within 100 miles of the Port of Tampa. At the very least, that includes the cities of Tampa, St. Petersburg, and Clearwater, but as far north as Ocala, as far south as Fort Myers, and includes Orlando and its surrounding cities.

This week’s events

I try to keep this list up-to-date. I add new events as soon as I hear about them, so be sure to check the latest version of this week’s list here on Global Nerdy!

Post date September 23, 2022

Here’s the list of tech, entrepreneur, and nerd events for Tampa Bay and surrounding areas for the week of Monday, September 26 through Sunday, October 2, 2022.

Every week, with the assistance of a couple of Jupyter Notebooks that I put together, I compile this list for the Tampa Bay tech community.

Programming, DevOps, systems administration, and testing
Tech project management / agile processes
Video, board, and role-playing games
Book, philosophy, and discussion clubs
Tech, business, and entrepreneur networking events
Toastmasters (because nerds really need to up their presentation game)
Sci-fi, fantasy, and other genre fandoms
Anything I deem geeky

This week’s events

I try to keep this list up-to-date. I add new events as soon as I hear about them, so be sure to check the latest version of this week’s list here on Global Nerdy!

Hurricane Ian update

**Hurricane Ian predicted path as of the morning of Monday, Sept. 26.**
Tap to view at full size.

UPDATE — Monday, September 26: With Hurricane Ian expected to pass near Tampa Bay around Wednesday evening/Thursday morning, expect events scheduled for later this week to be disrupted. Check with event organizers before going to make sure the event’s still happening!

Tampa Bay tech, entrepreneur, and nerd events (Week of Monday, September 19, 2022)

Post author By Joey deVilla
Post date September 16, 2022

Here’s the list of tech, entrepreneur, and nerd events for Tampa Bay and surrounding areas for the week of Monday, September 19 through Sunday, September 25, 2022.

Every week, with the assistance of a couple of Jupyter Notebooks that I put together, I compile this list for the Tampa Bay tech community.

Programming, DevOps, systems administration, and testing
Tech project management / agile processes
Video, board, and role-playing games
Book, philosophy, and discussion clubs
Tech, business, and entrepreneur networking events
Toastmasters (because nerds really need to up their presentation game)
Sci-fi, fantasy, and other genre fandoms
Anything I deem geeky

This week’s events

I try to keep this list up-to-date. I add new events as soon as I hear about them, so be sure to check the latest version of this week’s list here on Global Nerdy!

Tampa Bay tech, entrepreneur, and nerd events (Week of Monday, September 12, 2022)

Post author By Joey deVilla
Post date September 9, 2022

Tampa Bay tech, entrepreneur, and nerd events - September 12 - 18, 2022

Here’s the list of tech, entrepreneur, and nerd events for Tampa Bay and surrounding areas for the week of Monday, September 12 through Sunday, September 18, 2022.

Every week, with the assistance of a couple of Jupyter Notebooks that I put together, I compile this list for the Tampa Bay tech community.

Programming, DevOps, systems administration, and testing
Tech project management / agile processes
Video, board, and role-playing games
Book, philosophy, and discussion clubs
Tech, business, and entrepreneur networking events
Toastmasters (because nerds really need to up their presentation game)
Sci-fi, fantasy, and other genre fandoms
Anything I deem geeky

This week’s events

I try to keep this list up-to-date. I add new events as soon as I hear about them, so be sure to check the latest version of this week’s list here on Global Nerdy!

Tampa Bay tech, entrepreneur, and nerd events (Week of Monday, September 5, 2022)

Post author By Joey deVilla
Post date September 2, 2022

Here’s the list of tech, entrepreneur, and nerd events for Tampa Bay and surrounding areas for the week of Monday, September 5 through Sunday, September 11, 2022.

Every week, with the assistance of a couple of Jupyter Notebooks that I put together, I compile this list for the Tampa Bay tech community.

Programming, DevOps, systems administration, and testing
Tech project management / agile processes
Video, board, and role-playing games
Book, philosophy, and discussion clubs
Tech, business, and entrepreneur networking events
Toastmasters (because nerds really need to up their presentation game)
Sci-fi, fantasy, and other genre fandoms
Anything I deem geeky

This week’s events

I try to keep this list up-to-date. I add new events as soon as I hear about them, so be sure to check the latest version of this week’s list here on Global Nerdy!

Monday, September 5 – Labor Day

Keep in mind that Monday is Labor Day, and some of the events listed below may not actually take place on that day (many people simply list their events as “every Monday,” which Meetup.com will simply accept, completely ignorant on holidays). If you plan to attend an event on Labor Day Monday, check with the organizers to make sure it’s actually happening!

Conferences Programming Tampa Bay

Tampa Code Camp is back and looking for speakers — Saturday, October 8!

Post author By Joey deVilla
Post date August 28, 2022
1 Comment on Tampa Code Camp is back and looking for speakers — Saturday, October 8!

Tampa Code Camp is back! Tampa Bay’s annual (at least until the pandemic) FREE coding conference returns to Keiser University’s Tampa campus on Saturday, October 8 for a full day of coding and tech sessions. And that means they need speakers, and you could be one of them!

Tampa Code Camp’s sessions have these levels…

Beginner
Intermediate
Expert
Advanced

…and fall into these categories:

Azure
Development
Operations
DevOps
Devices
Soft Skills
AI

The call for speakers closes on September 30, but that’s no excuse to procrastinate. If you’ve got an idea for a talk, submit it at the Tampa Code Camp call for speakers page!

For more details, or to let them know that you’ll be attending, visit the Tampa Code Camp 2022 Meetup page.
