# Scottish Technology Club Bulletin — Week 35, 2026

We've got events listed across Dundee, Glasgow and Edinburgh this week, plus a fresh set of jobs for folks working in technology.

I'll be publishing some more JavaScript events this week - we're still looking to secure a venue in Glasgow, but I do have speakers lined up for September, October and November. Keep an eye on the [Luma Calendar](https://luma.com/scottishtechnologyclub) for details.

Last week I posted on LinkedIn about being [open for new clients](https://lnkd.in/p/eeU5veqp) and that I was looking to speak to people [working in forestry](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/jamiemchale_i-am-looking-for-introductions-to-people-activity-7496196796512247809-mB9l). Thanks to everyone who responded and shared!
