GitHub Copilot Dev Days - Toronto - #1

​Join us for the first GitHub Copilot Dev Days Canada event in Toronto!

We're hosting this in partnership with North Toronto Cloud & DevOps User Group!

We're bringing together builders, maintainers, and developers across Toronto's growing tech community for a night focused on modern GitHub‑powered workflows, open tooling, and hands‑on learning.

​Whether you use VS Code, JetBrains, Cursor, Claude Code, or any other tool in your stack, this meetup is GitHub‑centric but fully tool‑agnostic — come as you are, code how you like.

​What to Expect

• ​Practical insights into real GitHub workflows and modern AI‑assisted development

• ​Live demos from local engineers and community builders

• ​A friendly, social environment to connect, share ideas, and learn from one another

​🎤 Speakers:

• ​Ve Sharma - Solution Engineer @microsoft: TBD

• ​Riccardo Covo - Solution Engineer @microsoft: TBD

• ​Ray Kao Sr. Global Black Belt @microsoft: TBD

• ​​Potentially you! Reach out to us :)
