(WAS) Google Developer Group Hudson Valley - Reboots 03/21

This is the Meetup page for the Google Developer Group (Hudson Valley) Founded in Apr 2014. 
The Meetup is currently being rebooted to be more tech-agnostic and support online learning and skilling for the new ecosystem we live in. 

If you are interested in GDG Events please do consider joining my sister meetup community at 
https://meetup.com/gdgnyc  which will align more to the events run by the GDG community.

This meetup will focus on active learning and go back to our origins of events like Android Study Jams, Hour Of Code, and more -- with a focus on learning together to skill up for new job markets and technologies.


==========

The rebrand and reboot is in progress.
Your patience is appreciated!! 
I expect to relaunch the meetup and site/schedule sometime in March 2021

Best,

Nitya Narasimhan, PhD
Founder @GDGHV,

============




We are software developers, designers, educators and students with an interest in learning about emergent technologies in areas including (but not limited to) mobile, web, wearables, cloud computing, education technology, data sciences and smart homes.

Our events will be a mixture of Tech talks (lecture-style) that explore concepts and best practices, and GDG Garage events (hack sessions) that involved coding and collaboration.

Our talks may feature Google-developed solutions (e.g., Chrome, Android, AngularJS, Google Glass, Android Wear, Polymer, Google Compute Engine ..) but will also extend to competitive technologies, products and platforms. 

Our primary goal is to create networking, collaboration and entrepreneurial connections for technology enthusiasts in the Hudson Valley.

Entrepreneurial Excellence Business Forums - Hudson Valley

Poughkeepsie, NY

Entrepreneurial Excellence Business Forums - Hudson Valley

Welcome Hudson Valley
Small Business Entrepreneurs!

"This program is like getting a doctorate in small business without the expensive tuition!"

The Entrepreneurial Excellence Business Forums are monthly sessions for the Small Business Owner (SBO). (See our next session at the bottom of this page)

Each month we focus on a different aspect of small business development. This allows us to take the large job of professional development and break it down into bite size chunks. We make business easy to understand and growth strategies easy to implement.

Marketing, Sales, Customer Service, Management, Leadership, Teamwork Development, Goal Setting and Achievement, Communication, Strategy, Market Penetration and many more subjects are covered.

These sessions help you to understand what it really takes to make your business more profitable, manageable and enjoyable.

You need to run your business, not let it run you.

The Business Forum is here to help you create change in your business. Whatever change you are looking for. We will help you to work ON your business, not IN it. WORK SMARTER, NOT HARDER.

In addition to the learning session each month, we sit with a group of fellow business owners and discuss the best way to implement what we have learned that evening. We share our personal experiences, successes, and failures.

Please join our Meetup Group, no cost. Then attend a session and see what value you receive.

All sessions come with a Money Back Guarantee. If you do not feel you learned something new and valuable for your business, we will refund you the cost of that evening's Business Forum.

If you are a Solo-preneur, Micro-preneur or Small Business Entrepreneur, these sessions are designed for you.

Join the Entrepreneurial Excellence Business Forum and come to our monthly workshops to network with and learn from fellow small business entrepreneurs. EEBF members tell us that the greatest value they derive from these sessions is the change they have created in their businesses.

Each monthly forum meeting will give you time for networking, followed by interactive presentations and exercises to help you apply the material to YOUR business. The relationships you build and the Forum’s learning opportunities will enable you to grow your business by developing your skills and applying new tools, techniques, and ideas.

Business cards, a positive attitude and a willingness to contribute and help others are key factors to the success of the group and each individual member.
