A true forum – open to everyone

We examine how the ever-evolving technology landscape shapes our daily lives. Through monthly presentation and networking events, online book discussions, and local meetups, our community gathers to ask questions, exchange perspectives, and share real-world ideas.

Beyond our live events, we have several ways to stay connected via our community Slack workspace, weekly newsletter, and by following us on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram. You can also check out our News page for the latest Austin Forum updates.
