About Latin@ Techies

We've been around since 2014, crafting community-based events to expose young Latinxs to STEM, connect Latinx tech professionals, and do civic hacking on issues in Latinx communities (like through our weekly breakout group at #ChiHackNight and our annual Latin@ Hackathon). www.latinotechies.com FB MeetUp @latinotechies
