4th Annual End of Year Tech Meetup, Wed, Dec 11, 2024, 5:30 PM | Meetup

Phew, what a year we’ve had! From major tech advancements to devastating hurricanes—and an outpouring of love and support from our Tampa Bay communities—it’s been an exciting yet incredibly challenging year for so many. We don’t know about you, but we’re ready to say goodbye to 2024 and welcome a fresh start in 2025!
Join us for the 4th Annual End of Year Tech Meetup, where local Meetup groups from across Tampa Bay will gather to celebrate the year’s achievements, connect with fellow tech enthusiasts, and support our community.
This in-person event, hosted by Computer Coach and High Tech Connect, will be held at Embarc Collective.
DID SOMEONE SAY RAFFLE??
We’ll have plenty of raffle prizes to win! To enter, please bring an unwrapped gift or gift card (valued at $10 or more) for donation, or purchase a raffle ticket at the door.
All gifts and funds raised will go to Joshua’s House. Last year, we raised over $1000, and this year, we’re aiming even higher! Help us make an even greater impact by reaching our new goal and supporting children in need across our community. Below is a list of items we're asking for this year.
