Questions people usually have

A few quick answers before you RSVP or join a meetup.

Usually a mix of English and Spanish, depending on who is in the room. The goal is to keep it natural, welcoming, and easy to participate in.

No. The community is for people building tech products, so that includes developers, technical founders, product-minded operators, and non-technical founders actively building.

The goal is to host events monthly, with activity growing across Riviera Maya over time as the community expands.

Yes, likely yes. Some sessions will be more presentation-friendly than others, but sharing what you are building, asking for feedback, or proposing a topic is very welcome.
