As mentioned previously, our meet-ups are remote for the time being until we can transition back into in-person meetings. We'd also love to have more speakers for these sessions, so if you're interested, please reach out to [e-mail]! We'd love to hear from you.

Meteor Impact:

Meteor Impact will be happening on October 21st and 22nd - if you're interested in being a speaker, please reach out to [e-mail] for more information!

This year's conference will also include a five-day Hackathon filled with prizes and networking opportunities! The Meteor Hackathon will be held from October 15th to October 22nd (a 7-day event), focusing on building knowledge and understanding in Meteor.js, Meteor Cloud, and javascript.

You and your team can build a product with a clear revenue stream, a non-profit, open-source, or anything in between, BUT it should be usable and deployed on Galaxy at the end.
