We are looking for folks to help with API World 2022 (Oct 25-27, San Jose Convention Center & Nov 1-3, Virtual ) and we think it would be great if HacDC would join us as a Community Partner!
We think your members would find the sessions invaluable and we would allow them to join the event for free.
As a Community Partner, you will receive:
Free OPEN Passes for your Meetup Group members to attend the event. $100 (through PayPal) to help cover the cost of your next Meetup. Recognition as a Community Partner on the API World 2022 website. Chance to apply for a coveted speaking slot in one of the event tracks. Opportunity to hold a Meetup onsite.
In return, you would let your Meetup Group members know about API World 2022 by listing information about the event in your meetup group.
