Bulletin 2025 Week 39

It’s a busy week in Scottish technology meetups including Tech Sector Networking with Jackie Shields and inFORM founders forum in Glasgow, Women in Tech Aberdeen, AWS User Group and Makers Gonna Make in Edinburgh. I’m organising EdinburghJS “Let’s talk about AI” on Tuesday at the TravelPerk offices (they are hiring!), which will be livestreamed on our YouTube channel.
Looking further head: AI Builders hosts a Mini Sprint in Aberdeen, State of the Map Europe have published details of their sessions for their November conference, BCS have announced an event on What We Lost When We Stopped Doing UML.
Are you an Obsidian user? A few folks are considering running online meetups for people to share their digital note-taking stack. If you are interested then please fill out this form so we can gauge interest.
