Build your Tech Network!
summary
Claims concrete outcomes: a transplant from Silicon Valley recreates density by running meetups, hackathons and a local conference called Darwin conference, publishes slides on SpeakerDeck/SlideShare and answers on Quora, and trains engineers to speak. The surprising stat: only 1.3% of surveyed developers are unemployed and actively job‑seeking, so hiring happens through networks. Actions used: volunteering, mentoring, hosting events, asking for introductions. Result: steady candidate flow, hires, speaking opportunities and company visibility — two meetups per week becomes a practical recruitment channel.
