This month's topic: Java 25 Features Deep Dive
Java 25 is set to release on September 16, and it's packed with exciting new features that take the platform to the next level. Join us for a focused deep dive into what’s new, what’s changed, and what it means for Java developers.
At our last meetup, Tyler Van Gorder gave us a high-level overview of what’s coming. This time, we’re going deeper—examining the key features, practical use cases, and the rationale behind some of the biggest updates in this release.
Speakers:

Go-to-Market Strategy: New Approaches for the 2025 Landscape, Nailing Product-Market Fit: A Free Workshop Series: SESSION 3 plus free workday at KILN
Roll back
| description |

Launch with precision in today's market.
The go-to-market landscape has fundamentally shifted. What worked even two years ago may not work today, with changes in how buyers discover solutions, evaluate options, and make purchasing decisions. This session focuses on current, effective approaches to reaching your market and driving adoption. We'll cover positioning strategies that resonate, channel selection that matches your audience, and launch tactics that generate meaningful traction in today's environment.
ProductTheory.io workshop series at Kiln:
There’s one challenge all founders have in common, especially in 2025. It’s achieving product market fit.
This free workshop series at Kiln is based on ProductTheory’s celebrated Product-Market Fit Canvas: a framework for ensuring smart, data-driven product development and market strategy. Open to both Kiln members and the broader entrepreneurial community.
Why This Series Matters: Dr. Ali Maaxa has spent 20 years in the trenches - from Big Tech innovation teams to zero-to-one product launches. She's seen what works and what wastes time. These aren't theoretical workshops; they're based on frameworks that have powered successful launches for AWS, Recreation.gov, and dozens of startups who went from idea to revenue.
Free for both Kiln members and the broader community because great products make everyone's ecosystem stronger. Just show up ready to work.
Open to both Kiln members and the broader entrepreneurial community. Non-members get a free day pass to Kiln with their participation.
Session 1: Building & Testing your MVP (Minimum Viable Product) 9/24/25, 11:00 a.m., Kiln
Session 2: : Understanding Your Ideal Customer Profile https://luma.com/7zmulrns 10/1/25, Noon, Kiln

Session 2: The Question of Who? Your ICP (Plus get a free workday at KILN!)
Know your market as well as you know your product.
One of the most critical decisions you'll make is defining who you're building for. Getting your Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) right determines everything from product features to pricing to marketing channels. We'll explore proven frameworks for identifying and understanding your core market, diving deep into customer motivations, pain points, and buying behaviors. You'll leave with practical tools for customer research and a clear picture of who will become your most valuable users and advocates.
There’s one challenge all founders have in common, especially in 2025. It’s achieving product market fit.
This free workshop series at Kiln is based on ProductTheory’s celebrated Product-Market Fit Canvas: a framework for ensuring smart, data-driven product development and market strategy. Open to both Kiln members and the broader entrepreneurial community.

Tech Talk | Connecting People and Technology: A Career Built on Collaboration with Facundo Giuliani
Roll back
| description |
nil |

Success in tech isn’t only about coding, it’s about people. The most rewarding careers are built through collaboration, communication, and community. This Tech Talk will highlight how combining technical growth with human connection can open doors to unexpected opportunities.
Our guest speaker, Facundo Giuliani, brings nearly 20 years of experience in the software world. He’s grown from building websites in his hometown of Buenos Aires to working with international companies, speaking at conferences around the world, and leading developer communities. Today, he manages a solutions engineering team, but his journey shows that staying curious and connected is just as important as sharpening technical skills.
In this session, Facundo will walk us through his career path. From his early days as a developer, to discovering the world of Developer Relations (DevRel, the role that helps bridge developers and organizations), and later stepping into solutions engineering. Along the way, he’ll share insights on how relationships, opportunities, and community involvement shaped his path.
Join us live on Friday, September 19 at 1 PM PT | 3 PM CT | 4 PM ET.
Whether you’re brand new to the tech world or already building your career, this talk will inspire you to look beyond the code and focus on the people, opportunities, and collaborations that can help you grow.
Reserve your spot today and learn how collaboration can transform your career in tech!
