Free monthly tech meetup: speed networking, community activities, live music. Vote on activities. Petaluma, CA.About this Event
Join us for another evening of genuine connections and great conversations at North Bay Code & Cocktails! After an incredible first event with 30 attendees from across the North Bay, we're back and ready to build on that momentum.
WHAT'S CONFIRMED:
Speed Networking — This was the highlight of our first event! We'll do small-group speed networking rounds where you'll meet 3-5 people in quick, relaxed conversations. It's low-pressure, easygoing, and designed to feel natural. Based on the amazing feedback, we're expanding this to 3-4 rounds so you can meet even more people.
Live Music — After the structured activities, stick around for free live music! The musical performance was a hit at our first event and adds the perfect atmosphere to end the evening.
