What is TechYeet?
​​​
TechYeet is a diverse, social, and professional tech community.
​​​
The community is for people who want to enhance their professional careers, grow their networks, and have fun too!
​
Founded by Jason Jaques and co-led by Nicole Lawlor, TechYeet began with the idea of helping people socialize again after the isolation of COVID quarantine. "Yeet" means "to throw" or "to get excited," and both definitions apply to TechYeet. Sometimes, it's important to throw work aside and have fun; and other times, it's important to get excited about tech.
​​
Thousands have joined the community since its inception. Events occur often, allowing members to socialize, share ideas, and sometimes discover professional opportunities.
​
​The primary platform for the community is an invite-only Slack. If you're interested in joining, ask a member for an invite or connect with the host of one of our Meetup events
