Testimonials
Straight from the Community
Don't just take our word for it. Here is what fellow geeks have to say about their experience growing, learning, and connecting with us in the Algarve.
“I came across GeekSessions 4 years ago, and from that day I was awestruck! It is really great to see a group of like minded people pushing forward with their voluntary work, such a big community as is this one. Thank you for that!”
“I arrived in Portugal knowing nobody and was just as new to coding as I was to the country. Because of GeekSessions I’ve met so many wonderful people and learned so much and I couldn’t possibly be more grateful.”
“I’m so glad GeekSessions exists. I can always count on the community to receive me with open arms and support me in a very human, respectful, and “non-elitistic” way (which is something I fear will be missing from IT).”
“I love this community. Great people, great events, great vibes!”
“I’ve found GeekSessions to be the most valuable community I’ve engaged with. Through casual chats and structured sessions, I’ve met collaborators, mentors, and peers who share my passion for technology and the community.”
“Through Geek Sessions I was able to challenge my fear and anxiety of public speaking, and share with the community tech-design related topics that sparked interesting and important conversations between designers and developers! “
“My first event with GeekSessions was a Meetballs event at Ikea around AI. I went with curiosity and now I have gained great friends who love to bring tech enthusiasts together. Is one of the most amazing communities I ever met!”
“I’ve watched GeekSessons grow from half-a-dozen guys in hoodies to a thriving community. One thing never changed, their mission to be an oasis for tech driven people in a land that was barren of tech events.”
