Coding Grace Sep  2017 Newsletter & Upcoming events

Hi All,
Autumn has certainly arrived, that means more excuses to go to events. ๐Ÿ˜
Some of the announcements below are the same as last month as the organisations are still looking for women in tech/AI and if you have an idea for a talk, and BTW PyCon Ireland's CFP is still open.

Big thanks to GirlCrew for inviting me to talk about the tech community and what I do.

Would like to take a moment to thank all of our speakers for joining us this weekend! Tix here: https://t.co/eFx2FXL8js #GirlCrewApp ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘‘ pic.twitter.com/IURoPjQKWg
