Summary
This edition of the TechBrunch meetup is dedicated to open source. Attendees swap experiences and show projects from the open source world, with informal talks on tooling, licensing, and how communities are actually run. Contributors and the merely curious are equally welcome, and the emphasis is on conversation rather than a formal program. The setting is an early weekday brunch at Beltempo, the restaurant inside Hotel Metropolitan Edmont in Iidabashi. The hour-long slot runs before the working day starts, so the format stays light: a shared meal, a few short talks, and open discussion among engineers, designers, computer scientists, and anyone interested in open source communities. This is deliberately a small gathering rather than a large event, so an RSVP matters. The group may need to relocate within the venue and only guarantees it can be found by people on the confirmed attendee list. First-time attendees who RSVP and are confirmed have their meal covered.
About the community

TechBrunch is a recurring, deliberately small meetup that pairs a shared meal with informal tech talk. Each edition takes a theme, such as open source, and runs on short talks plus open discussion instead of a fixed program. It draws engineers, designers, and computer scientists who prefer conversation over slides, meets in English at hotel restaurants around central Tokyo, and covers the meal for first-time attendees who RSVP.
