## This meetup is for you if:
- You have an idea for a tech talk. Ideally these ideas would be the basis for an actual conference talk, but they don't have to be.
- Would like to explore a topic with fellow tech folks
- You want to work on your presentation skills
- You just want to listen to other techies!
Don't wonder too much if your topic is "worthy of presenting"! Get in contact with us and we will answer any questions.
## Each workshop will have experienced speakers on hand to:
* give you a warm, inclusive welcome in a safe space (check out our Code of Conduct which all participants must adhere to)
* mentor you with your proposal
* provide speaking advice
* and share their enthusiasm to get you to the stage!
## What's a presentation?
A presentation can be any talk related to tech! Just put together some slides, and explain it to the audience.
## Mission
We believe the Vancouver tech community has a lot of interesting ideas to share! Don't let imposter syndrome get in your way - come and share your thoughts with us.
