"The speakers are engaging, the locations are interesting, and the talks are energizing! Love the community and grabbing drinks together after the event! And the raffles. Ammar is a fantastic host!"
Software Developer
"I've really enjoyed being part of the Tampa Java User Group. Even though I mostly work in other languages, I've felt totally welcome, and I even won a Golang book in one of the raffles, which pushed me to finally start learning it. Big thanks to the organizers for putting these meetups together and keeping the local dev scene active."
Web Developer
"The Java User Group (JUG) has a social, inclusive, and genuinely supportive environment, a direct result of Ammar's unassuming and collaborative leadership and steadfast dedication. I've witnessed members actively facilitate numerous employment opportunities, provide practical employment advice and insightful technical guidance that has directly contributed to the professional advancement of many attendees."

"As someone new to town, the Tampa Java User Group was one of the first tech events I attended — and it quickly impressed me. The events are well-organized, the hosts are great, the speakers are engaging, and the community is full of smart, passionate people. Best of all, it's not limited to Java. I've learned something new at every meetup and met inspiring people. I highly recommend it to anyone in tech who wants to connect, learn, and grow."
