⚠️ Important: New venue for this month

This month we’re meeting at the Community Table (2nd floor) at Eden Court, Bishops Rd, Inverness IV3 5SA — not our usual location.

Food & drinks

A quick heads-up: there won’t be our usual pizza this month due to logistics. We’re hoping to order food and drinks from the venue instead—so come hungry (and flexible)!

📅 Schedule

6:30 PM – Welcome & Networking

Catch up with the local tech community, meet new people, and get settled in.

7:00 PM – Autonomous driving: what will you do with the extra time?

by Douglas McCallum

How autonomous driving has progressed—from following a wire under the road to recognising real-world obstacles (like a fire engine blocking the way) and rerouting safely.

8:00 PM – Event Wrap-Up

We may head elsewhere after the event for informal chats and a nightcap.

Join us for an evening of learning, connection, and community—kicking off 2026 together! 🚀
