MONDAY MEETUP - INDIA & SOUTH ASIA (JANUARY 24, 2022) + an Inspirational Story
Hey friends! I'm back again this week with the recap of our third Community Monday Meetup - India & South Asian region.
Like I say, nothing really beats the actual meetup, but here's the next best thing, i.e, video of the meetup:
The target audience for this as well as future meetings are members from South Asian countries, i.e. Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, though we love to welcome members from other regions as well.
This week we had an awesome conversation with a relatively new member @sdeepakkumar from India, who had some health problems and financial hardships in life and couldn't complete his education after class 10th, but through his hard work managed to win the first prize in Wix (by Velo's) Hackathon hosted during TCO21!
We got to hear his story in detail and it was inspirational for myself as well as all other listeners who could understand him!
In addition, we also had discussion about a variety of topics, including some basic tips on how to get into Machine learning.
If you can understand Hindi, don't miss this!
