Greetings from TechWalk Cleveland! How to get the most out of this newsletter This newsletter is focused on delivering four major values for each reader. Pick your lanes and we'll show you how to get started. Find a walk near you. The full calendar is at the bottom of every issue and comes straight from luma.com/techwalk. Once you register, you can see who else is going. Meet someone before you show up. Your chapter directors are listed by city in this issue, with links to their LinkedIn profiles. Send a connection request before the walk and you'll arrive already knowing someone. Speak at a walk. Let us know a topic you know well and the city you're in. That's the whole application. Get in front of 18,800 people. If you're hiring, launching something, looking for a co-founder, or have a story to tell, reply to this email and we'll find it a home in a future issue. Community Highlight Would you like to make a real impact in just a few hours? The NYC Tech Talent Pipeline is looking for volunteers to conduct mock technical interviews for students pursuing tech careers. Your feedback and encouragement could be the boost a student needs to land their first opportunity! ✅ Flexible scheduling ✅ Resources provided ✅ Rewarding mentoring experience ✅ Help students prepare for internships and entry-level roles Virtual Demo Day: show us what you built In Good Company Co. and TechWalk are hosting Virtual Demo Day on Friday, 11/20 at 7 PM ET, thanks to support from Lovable. The idea is simple: you don't have to be a developer to build technology anymore. Here's how it works. Walk the SF or LA Token TechWalk, pick up your Lovable credits, and build something in Lovable. Then submit your build. Selected builders demo live for three minutes, with two minutes of conversation after. There's no pitch deck, no fundraising, and no need to have a company. Anything we can see and poke at counts, from an internal tool to a neighborhood resource to something only useful to you. Builders who submit but aren't selected still land in a post-event project gallery, and we’ll pick projects to showcase in this newsletter.
