San Francisco ACX Meetup “First Saturday”

Date: Saturday, August 2nd, 2025

Time: 1 pm – 4 pm PT

Address: A venue in SoMa; I will send out the address shortly before the event, so please register below (or email me, or sign up on the signup sheet) to be notified!

Contact: 34251super@gmail.com

For this ACX meetup, let’s try doing a lightning-talk session! Lightning talks are an opportunity to give short, informal talks on a subject you have some knowledge and interest in. Emphasis on the ‘informal’: you should know your subject, but don’t feel obligated to have a polished presentation. If you’re interested, sign up here.

Important note: the event will be at a venue in SoMa (so it’ll be indoors). The venue manager would prefer I only share the location with attendees. So please let me know if you would like to attend, either via email or by RSVPing on this page, and I will send the address.

As examples, here are some past topics from Jacob Kopczynski (the North Oakland meetup organizer): how complicated the process of organizing fresh food for airplane flights is, your experience volunteering for a local political campaign, a video game you were designing and writing.

Details:

  • Talks are short, maximum 7 minutes. I will set an audible timer.

  • We’ll leave a few minutes for Q&A at the end of each talk.

  • The venue will be at a venue in SoMa (so it’ll be indoors). I will publish the specific address closer to the event.

  • Slide decks are fine, but optional. Let me know in the signup sheet if you need a projector /​ whiteboard /​ something else.


Folks at these meetups tend to have really interesting pockets of knowledge, so I’m looking forward to an afternoon of edu-tainment! Please sign up if you’re willing to give a talk!

You can let me know you are coming by either RSVPing on LW or sending an email to 34251super@gmail.com.
