Does anyone know of any upcoming smalltalk conferences in the United States?

We need to start one. Along with a North American version of ESUG.

SoCal checking in here. Would love that as Europe is usually beyond my reach for just a tech conf.

I'm in Los Angeles. Plenty of places to hold conferences here! (San Diego &
San Francisco, too.)

There are a few Camp Smalltalk held in United States. The last one held by Instantiations at Charlotte, NC last year [1] was more like a small conference rather than a Camp and it a lot of fun as you can see in this video [2]. Then there was another one at Portland too [3] that was sponsored by many companies and vendors.

I guess that's a good start.

Thanks, Mariano. Wish I had known about the Portland event; I might have
made arrangements to take time off & attend it. How often do they have
west-coast events?

I'm currently generating interest in the L.A. area for Pharo/Smalltalk, with
the idea of eventually coordinating regular meetups. There's a fairly
active technical community in my area, with many users groups using
meetup.com for SIGs. I think a Pharo SIG would fit right in.

Re: smalltalk conferences

I'm in LA, and I would definitely attend meetups. I'm writing these little small apps in pharo just getting used to the environment and I think it's great.

Re: smalltalk conferences

Hi Steve,

Check out https://www.meetup.com/SGVTech/ -- click on "Events" for a list of
upcoming meetups.

I'm planning to attend next Tuesday's AI & Machine Learning meetup, and the
Linux Users Group monthly meetup on the 13th.

Stop by and let's get introduced...

I've already made a Pharo presentation to the Software Engineering SIG, and
now the AI/ML group is interested in a talk. There's at least one guy (who
is likely to be at both the above meetups) who I've inspired to learn Pharo
to use on a project.

So there's definitely interest -- it's only a matter of people here finding
out about Pharo. It definitely can be turned into a SIG itself with its own
monthly meetup.
