Imagine cross-functional teams working together on projects that bridge the gap between coding and design. This is a space where ideas are exchanged, where professionals and students from diverse backgrounds come together to learn, share, and ignite their creative sparks. It’s all about collaborative exploration.
Future Events: Hackathons, Capture the Flag, and more
Chalk Connect is more than just a once-a-month gathering. Our vision extends to exciting events for the future. From hackathons that challenge participants to think outside the box to competitive Capture the Flag events that showcase cybersecurity skills, we're committed to providing avenues for growth, learning, and fun.
For Tech Enthusiasts, By Tech Enthusiasts
As with the wider Chalk Eastbourne community, you are at the heart of everything we do. We value your opinions and aspirations, so we'll encourage all participants to share their thoughts on what they want to achieve in the group - our first session will focus on this so we can shape the direction of Chalk Connect together, ensuring it remains a dynamic and relevant platform for all its attendees.
