Coffee Chat (1.5h+ or rolling)

What it looks like:

• 3 to 15 people.

• Casual seating around a table so people can show off their workspaces.

• Taking turns to share, or discussing a specific topic (like how to build wikis, roadmaps, etc.).

Top tips:

• We recommend group discussions, so look for a cafe with ample seating and table space.

• Look for somewhere quiet, where people won't have to shout to be heard.

• You can also bring coffee to a more open venue, like a lawn on a campus, office cafeteria, etc.

• Coffee, of course, is not a requirement ☕️Any beverage (or snack) will do!

Pros:

• Quick + casual. Attendees can stop in for a few minutes and roll out whenever they want.

• It's easy for people to sit in a circle, show each other what's up on their own laptops, and give each other thoughtful feedback/ideas.

Cons:

• Being at the mercy of the cafe means that there will be less structure than you might have at a privately hosted event.

• Depending on the size, some people may not get the chance to share.
