By Carlee Mallard, on October 9th, 2010% On October 19th in downtown Raleigh I’m hosting the first ever meetup of the Triangle Community of Developing Careerists. We hope to establish a base community of developing careerists that we can build upon for future meetups, create meaningful relationships through a group activity, and discuss future directions for the group.
This meetup will be structured, yet casual.
The evening will be broken up as follows:
1) Ice Breaker to really get to know each other for the first time
2) Breakout Group Discussions and Networking – Two groups, one centered around post-college life and direction (“What I Wish . . . → Read More: Triangle Community of Developing Careerists: Meet & Greet

It’s already been three weeks since our last PechaKucha Night. Since we’ve already made a lot of headway getting the next set of speakers together for the September event at SPARKcon it feels more like months ago, though!

By Carlee Mallard, on February 13th, 2010% There are four major idea-sharing events taking place between March 3, 2010 and March 23, 2010 in the Raleigh-Durham (Triangle) area. They’re all free. They’re all aimed at engaging the local community thought leaders with the rest of the community through presentations. They’re all one-night events coordinated by a local (unpaid) team.
