Hangouts, happenings and hellos

The month's winding down and we're still reflecting on the connections that make the Baltimore tech ecosystem what it is.
 
We'd love to hear from you about some of the key events annual, defunct, one-offs, etc. that you feel define or defined the city and area's Baltimore tech world. For instance, what lesser-known accelerators and incubators continue to bring companies into the scene? What did you love going to in the past that doesn't happen anymore?
 
Let us know what convenings make the tech scene what it is today by replying to this email or sending a note to , anytime.
