Tech events for learning and sharing experience

Tech events offer opportunities to explore technologies, discuss practical challenges and meet professionals from other teams. When choosing a conference, meetup or workshop, compare the programme, intended audience and participation requirements.

DevKG is Kyrgyzstan's tech community. The events section features announcements for gatherings in Bishkek, other cities and online. Before planning your attendance, check the date, location and registration process for the specific event.

Choose between conferences, meetups and hackathons

A tech conference may bring together several talks or subject tracks. Review the agenda, speakers and timetable to identify sessions relevant to your interests. A meetup often focuses on a narrower topic and may include practical discussions and audience questions.

At a hackathon, participants develop a solution or project within a limited time. Check the challenge, team requirements and judging criteria before registering. If you want to practise a specific skill, review a workshop's exercises and prerequisites.

Check topics, audience and preparation

Find out whether the event is intended for beginners, experienced professionals or a mixed audience. Sessions on programming, testing, artificial intelligence and product development may require different levels of knowledge.

Check the presentation language and opportunities to ask questions. Practical sessions may require a laptop, installed software or a completed preparation task. Confirm these requirements before the event begins.

Events in Bishkek and online participation

For an in-person event, confirm the exact address, starting time and entry arrangements. If you are travelling from another city, allow for the journey and the length of the programme.

For an online event, check the time zone, platform and how you will receive access details. A live broadcast does not guarantee that a recording will be published. If you need session materials or access afterwards, review the organiser's arrangements in advance.

Registration and participation requirements

Open the event page and follow the registration link or the organiser's instructions. Check the price, application deadline and attendance limits. Free events may still require advance registration.

Distinguish upcoming events from past listings: an archived page does not mean registration has reopened. Before attending, review the current programme and the organiser's latest updates.
