Bulletin 2026 Week 41

It’s a busy week in Scottish tech, with events in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, and online, starting with RookieOven on Monday evening, and culminating with Community Over Code starting on Sunday.

Do you want to speak at a meetup? We’ve just posted details of the next iteration of Speaker Launchpad, helping people select topics then prepare and practice their talks. Details are on the site!

Over in the community Discord Jon is asking for volunteers to be case studies for his new consulting company; Ying is looking for a job that offers skilled worker visas (Ying spoke at EdinburghJS last month on designing and developing an app, a great presentation!); Jack is looking for sponsors for Dundee Data Meetup; and Emmanuel has open sourced his training kit.
