Ignite Portland is an exciting, fast-paced, night of presentations where people can share their passions and burning ideas. The rules are fairly simple: 20 sides x 15 seconds per slide (auto-advancing) = 5 minutes of awesome. Presentations can be on nearly any topic, so long as they can teach, enlighten, or inspire us.

Doors open at 5pm with a OFB donation, 5:45 for everyone else. Talks start at 7pm, so plenty of time to get a good seat!

Registration is required.

Join us at the first Safety First PDX workshop on Codes of Conduct. Whether you're looking for a primer or a refresher, Codes of Conduct play a key role in diversity and inclusion, particularly when it comes to the tech community. The workshop will cover:

• What a Code of Conduct is and why we need it
• Examples of common problems that you'll have to deal with
• Incident report handling and practice
• Strategies for responding and resolving problems effectively

Safety First PDX is a Stumptown Syndicate program promoting community safety and accountability in PDX tech and beyond. Safety First is led by Audrey Eschright, co-author of the Citizen Code of Conduct (in use by Open Source Bridge and various other communities). Audrey has five years of experience on code of conduct implementation and enforcement for open source projects and events and spent ten years organizing tech community spaces, including user groups, open source projects, and conferences.
