These are not your typical software engineering events. This is an exciting time for our human computer civilization and BASE is a community organization dedicated to creating events for software engineers on emerging technologies and topics that have never been attempted before. Events focus in on topics like Machine Learning, Robotics, Nanotechnology, Arduino, 3D Printing, Synthetic Biology, Artificial Intelligence, Computer History, Computer Vision, Big Data, Augmented Reality (AR), Wearable Devices, Software to Create Art, and Interstellar Space Travel all from a software engineers perspective. BASE creates events only possible in San Francisco and the Bay area with experts from all walks of life as possible speakers in panels and even debates between different languages, IDE's, technologies, techniques, marketing strategies and more. Coding ability is encouraged but not required to attend our events.
