The CGCtech meetup (clean / green / climate) - social session

GOSH. September is another VeryVeryVery full month - in all the best ways :)

And so this month's CGCtech meetup will be a casual affair. Anyone who's keen to come hang out in a very relaxed fashion with some other great humans, in a superbly gorgeous spot, we'd love to see you :)

Next month we'll organise something different; still social, but featuring More - stay tuned!

This month, too, check out:

• this PassivHaus event:

• Green Drinks, featuring H``ōhepa, anthroposophy and the environment (we instantly thought of kincentricity, too):

And next month is Electrify Christchurch! Can't wait to have a hoon on the Wigram Air Force Museum runway :D

As always, if you'd like to speak, host, propose a meetup format, collaborate, cross-pollinate, or sponsor, let us know :D

Waitaha Canterbury is home to incredible thinkers, doers and supporters in the fields of climate, environment, sustainability, regeneration, and technology.

But there's no event which brings everyone together to link up: the environmentalists and technologists, scientists, academics, community and industry, and anyone keen in learning more / contributing.

So this is the start of just that: a pluralistic, trans-disciplinary group of people all working to improve matters for planet and people.

While future events will have a mix of formats, from speakers and presentations to collaboration and support sessions, to relaxed catchups and more, this first meetup will be an informal kōrero. We want to hear from those who come along about what they're doing, what they'd like to see, and how we can build.

For a kinder, stronger, more resilient Aotearoa New Zealand. #bettertogether #always

Note: due to the environmentally-focused nature of this meetup, it will not be about GenAI / agentic AI, for which there are other meetups and fora.
