Speak at our monthly meetups in Modena
The Italian C++ Community has organized monthly meetups in Modena (and online) since 2017:
- we are hosted at MakeIt Modena;
- our location hosts up to 30 people in person;
- the speaker is intended to participate in person;
- the session will be live on YouTube;
- afterwards, we’ll have a booked table at our favourite pizzeria for chat and networking.
The meetup opens doors at 6:30 PM (GMT+1), hosting a 60/90-min technical session from 7 PM.
A bit of history
After hosting two exploratory meetups in 2017, Marco Arena launched a monthly in-person series in 2018. The format transitioned to hybrid in 2019, shifting to online-only in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. By the last quarter of 2021, the meetups returned to a hybrid format. In 2024, Marco relocated to Milan and passed the leadership to Eric Tondelli, Mattia Verasani, and Andrea Battistello, who volunteered to continue the meetups in Modena.
Session format
We welcome any session format!
The most popular meetup formats we have hosted up to now are:
- technical session (classical frontal session)
- workshop (the speaker facilitates a practical session where people will put their hands on some code)
- moderated round-table (the speaker moderates an interactive session to debate about a specific topic by asking questions to the audience)
- live coding (a structured “no-slides” talk)
For other formats, please choose “Other” and drop some lines in the notes.
Acceptance
First, we get back in touch with you to find the optimal date for your session. While we sometimes have fixed slots, if that’s not the case, you have the flexibility to choose the best time for you.
First Come, First Served: if multiple speakers wish to present in the same month, precedence is given to the first proposal submitted.
