About this Event

What is it?

Open to everyone, join CodeBase at their newest opened hub at the Standard - Midsteeple Quarter, to connect with members of the local tech community. Come for a coffee, networking, build connections, and stay for the hotdesking!

Limited Hotdesking space is available, please choose a Hotdesking ticket option if you'd like to stay on for half a day of hotdesking at the Standard!


What can I expect?

Unfiltered is a relaxed, informal morning for anyone interested in connecting with people from across the tech ecosystem. We keep the agenda loose, focussing on good conversations over coffee, with space to meet new people and catch up with familiar faces.

During Unfiltered we have our Community Bell, a chance for you to hear from us and other community members about opportunities and events happening over the next month, feel free to make an announcement or ask a member of CodeBase staff to speak on your behalf!

Or you can sign up for our Spotlight, where you have up to 5 minutes to share your story with the group. This could be your founder journey, lessons learned as an investor, an unconventional career path, or anything else you think the community would enjoy hearing. It’s informal, with no slides or pitch needed - just you, your experience, and an open conversation.

There’s no pressure to take part in either, you’re just as welcome to come along, listen in, and chat at your own pace. You don’t need a background in tech to join us; we welcome anyone curious about meeting new people and learning more about the community.


Where and when is this taking place?

Unfiltered South of Scotland (Dumfries) takes place on the first Tuesday of the month. Please feel free to drop in at any time between 09:00 to 10:30, in our main events space located on the main floor at the Standard - Midsteeple Quarter, Dumfries, DG1 2BA.


Who will be there?

Techies, creatives, academics, freelancers, CodeBase staff and anyone interested in meeting peers within the South of Scotland tech ecosystem and beyond! We also strongly recommend joining our Online Community, where you can connect with others in your region.


WiTR

To support deeper and more purposeful networking, we are delighted to be integrating WiTR (Who’s in The Room) with all of our Unfiltered events.

WiTR generates a live list of attendees (if they have agreed to share their details) on the app, helping you get a headstart on networking, and making follow-up connections even easier! Post-event, we will share the full WiTR list. This list is available for 40-hours post event.


Registration

We ask everyone to sign up individually, so we can have an estimate of how many people want to attend. We will also check-in each person on Eventbrite as they join the event so make sure you've signed up to the event in order to attend!

Tickets are limited so be sure to register!
