Waterloo Python Users Group P2P

June 7th -  Brydon Gilliss 

Please join us Thursday, June 7th at 6:30 pm for the kick-off session for the new Python Peer2Peer group by clicking on the Register Now link below.  This is a collaboration effort between Waterloo Python Users Group (WatPy) http://watpy.ca/ and Communitech.  This Peer2Peer group will start with 4 sessions over the period of 12 months and is open to members and non-members of the Communitech Network, so please share with others.

 This group hopes to bring together developers, managers, researchers and enthusiasts to learn more about Python: a diverse language which is suitable for an increasing number of purposes including scripting, web development, scientific computation and automation.

 The Kick-Off session details:

Our guest speaker, Brydon Gilliss doesn't always program, but when he does, he prefers Python and he will explain why.

Brydon is a software developer who is very active in the startup community (www.startupify.me) and the tech community in Guelph. Among other things, he runs 349 Co-working space (threefortynine.com), DemoCampGuelph (http://www.democampguelph.com/), and has spoken at Ignite Waterloo (www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-NNNe5ewM0).

Following Brydon, participants will give 5 minute lightening talks.
