TechSpeakers/Meetups/Amsterdam 2019

Meet-up Tech Speakers – Amsterdam 2019

This meet-up is on invitation only. The invitation period is now closed and all participants have received their invitation.

Tech Speakers are a group of global group of Mozilla developer outreach volunteers that actively represent Mozilla at technical events and conferences in their regions and around the world.

In the last few years, we hold yearly meetups to improve the quality of our most impactful members. Meeting with each other is a good way of motivating each other and to increase our engagement. In-person meetings also help to work on these in a more personal way, and to build relationships between participants, staff and coaches.
