How to Make the Most of Tech Conferences and Meetups

Tips to have productive experiences in tech conferences and similar events

Tech and professional communities provide great value to developers. In Medellín, Colombia, there’s a large number of these communities with different approaches but all are very well-received. Some examples are Medellín JS, Python Medellín, MDE.Net, Robótica Medellín, among many others. In my case, I actively participate as an assistant and speaker for Pioneras Developersand I’m an organizer of Women Who Code Medellín. Devs can also go to international events such as the JSconf, Scale Conf, Pycon, and more.

However, us attendees do not always make the most of the events we go to.

Surrounding ourselves by people with similar interests is inspiring and motivating and all. But, on many occasions, it’s all too easy to get sleepy, lose concentration and get distracted. Or, even if you try to listen carefully to the presentation, you fail to understand it. You don’t associate with any of the concepts and that causes your mind to wander or you end up falling asleep!
