About Dev_Climb
// We're an organisation designed to connect.
Founded in August 2024, by Nicole Lehmeyer and Bethany Milford, the Dev_Climb organisation is a community-focussed initiative aimed at fostering collaboration and networking between science, technology, engineering and mathematics professionals and students through unique events and activities.
// Our Mission
Dev_Climb takes a 'by developers, for developers' approach, aiming to create engaging networking events which capture the heart and spirit of what it means to be a software developer. Dev_Climb re-defines traditional networking, deviating from the archetype of formal networking, and switching up the setting and structure to create an environment conducive to more organic conversation and connection, promising to be both fun and professionally enriching.
// Our Values
Community: Catalysing community building - recognising power as a collective and acting as a safe, uplifting space to encourage and push each other.
Inclusivity: Creating an environment where everyone belongs and has a place, regardless of their background or identity. By celebrating diversity and embracing inclusivity, we can collectively benefit from collaboration, creativity and social growth, to grow as one.
Holism: Dev_Climb takes a holistic view of the whole being, emphasising the synergy and balance in areas of the mind, body and soul, which together, have an impact greater than the sum of their separates.
Growth: Dev_Climb encourages group and self development by leaning into curiosity, taking risks and stepping outside of our comfort zones.
