Agenda and additional details to come.

Introducing Navigate Local: A bite-sized one day event, but with all the same tracks, workshops, talks, and amazing people you've come to expect from our flagship Civo Navigate events.

Innovation and education is at the heart of Navigate Local, with a focus on helping individuals and businesses alike to make the most of cloud native technologies.

For our debut Navigate Local event we're delighted to return to Tampa, Florida - where we held the very first Civo Navigate. We're excited to catch up with old friends and connect with new people in the Tampa tech community.

Join us for a night of community networking and company pitches at Thrive DTSP! This month's participating companies are Codeboxx, Tampa Bay Techies, Relic Tickets, Takeoff, and the St. Pete EDC. Details on each company listed below. Shoutout to our food and beverage sponsors - Codeboxx & Thrive DTSP!

Codeboxx: CodeBoxx is a 16-week full-stack bootcamp that offers a deep understanding of web site development and information systems and covers programming languages such as HTML, Javascript, Python, Go, C#, Ruby, and Ruby on Rails. CodeBoxx’s mission is to help students realize their full potential in the world of coding and web development. To allow as many as possible to realize that potential, CodeBoxx's goal is to remove the barriers to entry: all applicants are accepted, have access to a laptop loan program, and only pay tuition after successful job placement.

Tampa Bay Techies: Tampa Bay Techies brings together industry professionals, students, and individuals interested in technology. Our goal is to promote personal and professional growth through volunteer opportunities, mentorship, and in person networking. We strive to give our members a supportive environment to build the future of leaders in the technology community.

Relic Tickets: Relic Tickets is a blockchain-based ticketing solution that eliminates fraud, creates ease of use for ticket holders, adds post-event benefits (i.e: digital collectibles, continued engagement ) and amplifies our customer’s experience by giving more control to the ticket holder.

Takeoff: Streamline Your Group Travel with Takeoff – The App That Makes It Easy to Plan and Pay for Trips Together

St. Petersburg Economic Development Corporation: The Greater St. Petersburg Area Economic Development Corporation promotes the St. Pete region as a world-class business and career location, helping companies relocate to and expand in the heart of Tampa Bay. The EDC is a private-public partnership that stemmed from St. Pete’s Grow Smarter strategy, developed by a coalition of nearly 100 community organizations to drive equitable economic prosperity by targeting key sectors primed for growth. Supported by more than 65 leading Investor organizations, the EDC helps businesses create and retain high quality jobs in the innovative, collaborative, and inclusive community of St. Petersburg. These companies create opportunities for the people of St. Pete and encourage others to relocate our area.

Thrive DTSP: Private offices, flexible, and shared workspace solutions in downtown St. Pete with everything-you-need amenities. THRIVE is a local, purposefully built business community that, like an artist’s palette, mixes creative space design, a-many amenities, and smart, talented people (our members) to support YOUR needs as a THRIVING business.

Meeting Spot
We will be OUTSIDE on the green lawn near the chess/checker courts so as not to incur the wrath of security. If we have inclement weather we will head inside but be further away from the doors.

Parking
There is free side street parking north / east of Armature Works, which should mostly be available on a Wednesday. If you need to pay for parking I believe it's $5, possibly $10.
