What’s happening in the Tampa Bay tech/entrepreneur/nerd scene (Week of Monday, June 24, 2019)

Every week, I compile a list of events for developers, technologists, tech entrepreneurs, and nerds in and around the Tampa Bay area. We’ve got a lot of events going on this week, and here they are!

This weekly list is posted as a voluntary service to the Tampa tech community. With the notable exception of Tampa iOS Meetup, which I run, most of this information comes from Meetup.com, EventBrite, and other local event announcement sites. I can’t guarantee the accuracy of the dates and times listed here; if you want to be absolutely sure that the event you’re interested in is actually taking place, please contact the organizers!

Tampa’s Women Who Code chapter is holding a two-part event this week featuring Tampa Bay tech evangelist Russ Fustino. Part one covers Xamarin Forms, a cross-platform UI toolkit that’s also one of the simplest ways to create native applications for Android, iOS, and the Universal Windows Platform. He’ll demonstrate building an app and deploying it to Android, iOS, and Windows devices. Part two covers the blockchain system made by Algorand, which boasts throughput on par with large financial networks and immediate transaction finality. He’ll explain Algorand’s protocol, demonstrate node management with command-line tools, and show how to build layer 2 applications using Algorand’s SDK.

“Secrets of the Undercroft” may sound like the title for a Harry Potter novel, but it’s an open house for a new player in the Tampa Bay tech scene. The Undercroft is a guild whose goal is to grow the area’s individual, organizational, and economic security by advancing innovation, creativity, and security knowledge. Their space, located in one of Ybor City’s charming old buildings, will features training rooms, a media studio, conference rooms, shared workspaces, rack space, and even an ISOC (information security operations center). They’re opening soon, and this is your chance to get an early look at their space and find out more about them.

Tech’s hottest topic meets tech’s hottest platform on Thursday at the Tampa Bay AWS User Group meetup! Tristan Li, Solutions Architect at Amazon, will talk about AWS’ latest artificial intelligence and machine learning features. As an added incentive, they’ll raffle off a $250 credit for AWS.

Friday, June 28

If you can’t make it to Tuesday’s “Secrets of the Undercroft” event (see above) but want to find more about Tampa Bay’s new security, innovation, and creativity guild, come attend this meet-and-greet with The Undercroft’s founders, members, and partners over light snacks and drinks.

Dungeons and Dragons and other role-playing games aren’t just a geek pastime — they’re an important part of the culture. I’m not exaggerating when I say this; Reid Hoffman, co-founder and executive chair of LinkedIn and partner at Greylock Partners says that his success comes from his RPG experiences. If you’re new to RPGs and want to get into them, Game Club Tampa Meetup has the event you need this Saturday! Find out more here.

Sunday, June 23

Sunday’s interest event is Book vs Movie Club, a book club where they attempt to answer the question “Was the book better than the movie?”. The book/movie in question this time is The Girl on the Train, and they’ll do in at one of my favorite British-themed pubs, Yeoman’s Cask and Lion. Find out more here.
