AWS Users Group Cebu - May Monthly Gathering

Cebu techies, we are back! After hitting the pause button on formal events for March and April, it’s time to officially reconvene the pack.

Let’s be honest—we didn't completely disappear. Our "sabbatical" mostly consisted of informal, wonderfully unhealthy huddles at Sugbo Mercado IT Park, crushing unlimited tuslob buwa and talking shop. But it’s time to step away from the gravy brain-fog and get back to business!

A Brand New Spot 📍

To kick off our return, we are moving to a brand-new home this month: Banok’s at the Capitol Site. We wanted a space that is much more accessible, centralized, and friendlier to our commuting student members. Huge thanks to Banok's for stepping up to support the community!

The Agenda: Reconnect, Introduce, & Map the Future 🗺️

Over the years, our community dynamics have shifted—just like many other tech groups in Cebu, we now have an incredible, high-energy surge of student members and aspiring developers alongside our seasoned professional peers.

Because we have so many fresh faces and we’ve been low-profile for two months, this gathering is all about breaking the ice and closing the gap. There are no intimidating, heavy-slide technical keynotes this time. Instead, we are focusing on connection:

The Roll Call: A casual round of introductions. Who are you, and what are you building?The Pitch: Share what you are currently itching to learn about AWS, cloud-native architecture, or the tech industry in general.The Pay-Forward: For the pros in the room, tell us what you’re working on or what you're willing to share and mentor on.

Why You Should Come

Whether you are a computer science student trying to understand what an S3 bucket actually does, a developer looking to shift into cloud architecture, or a seasoned engineer wanting to give back to the local scene—this is your Point A.

Come hungry for knowledge (and maybe some chicken), bring your questions, and let's map out what you want to see from AWSUG Cebu for the rest of the year.

Community Advisory: The technical/creative/engineering concepts and practices shared are valuable for developing skills and building knowledge. However, the community does not automatically endorse the businesses of the speakers, community officers, core members, partners, or sponsors, nor does it mean these businesses or software are safe or ideal. Take the knowledge and skills for your own consideration, and practice strict due diligence before signing any contracts or automatically supporting the business behind them. We appreciate audience feedback and suggestions.
