Tuesday 1st June: iDEA Lab Showcase & Lunch, 10am-3pm at Informatics Forum
Talks, posters, networking, demos and lunch! This event brings researchers in medicine and biology, with large and/or complex data sets, together with informaticians with experience of handling and analysing large and complex data sets. Listen to cool talks (11am-12pm & 2-3pm) and/or join in for lunch and poster viewing (12:20-2pm). Sign up free on the eventbrite site.
(I believe the next Launch Lab is next week, not this Tuesday)
Thursday 3rd June: TechMeetup West Lothian, 7:30pm at The Black Bull (West Calder)
Great to see TechMeetup expanding! The kickoff meeting for TechMeetup West Lothian is this week, so any developers, startups, or other interested parties in the West Lothian area can check this out. No planned talk for this meeting, just beer + food and finding out what people are interested in for future meetups. Please contact @james_lucas or @dazzaontheroad with any questions.
Friday 4th June: Edinburgh Coffee Morning, 8am at Centotre (George Street)
Lovely bunch of digital media, social media, and just generally fun folks chatting away and making new friends. The best way to start your Friday, and well worth the early arrival (you can trickle in 8-9am if that helps). It’s hard to get out of bed, but whenever I manage I’m always so happy I went!
A meetup for hackers, designers, startups and people who love tech. Instead of presentations and talks, we work together on side projects or interesting apps, learn new techniques from each other, and hang out in a coffee shop while we do it all. Turn up something Saturday afternoon starting from 12pm, and it’s pretty much BYOL (bring your own laptop). You can have a look at what other folks are working on by going to the group’s site, and share your own project ambitions there as well.
Friday 4th June – Sunday 6th June: Launch 48 Conference & Weekend, London
Launch a web app in 48 action-packed hours, whether you’re a developer, marketer, or project manager. There’s also a great conference on during the day Friday – 30% Discount if you book now!
Friday 4th June – Sunday 6th June: London Startup Weekend, also London!
Meet loads of cool startup folks, incl mentors, entrepreneurs & ideas people, also in London. Great lineup of speakers and I’m sure you’ll have a blast at either of the London startup events 🙂
