Claude Code Community Event at Inspire9 Richmond
A fantastic evening of guest speakers and community project showcases celebrating AI-powered development.
Last month, we had the pleasure of hosting a Claude Code Community Event at the brilliant Inspire9 Workspace in Richmond, Melbourne. The turnout exceeded our expectations, with developers, AI enthusiasts, and tech professionals coming together for an evening of learning, sharing, and connection.
A highlight of the evening was hearing from Boris Cherny, the creator of Claude Code, who shared insights into the development of the tool and its future direction. It was a rare opportunity for the Melbourne community to connect directly with the person behind one of the most exciting AI development tools available today.
The event brought together people from across Melbourne's tech community who are exploring how Claude and AI-powered tools are transforming the way we build software. From seasoned developers to those just starting their AI journey, the diversity of attendees made for rich conversations and valuable networking.
Inspire9 played host to a wonderful crowd of Claude Code users and those interested in the emerging tech.
Claude Code users got to showcase their workflows plus we got to hear from Claude Code creator, Boris Cherny.
