Hands-on tech across CALABARZON

Unique tech topics

  • Smart contracts
  • Microcontrollers
  • AI
  • Hour of AI
  • Sui Move

Laguna ran 10 events for 50 to 100 participants each, from smart contracts to microcontrollers and AI.

The chapter held its first-ever event in a public elementary school through Hour of AI, at San Roque Elementary School and Calendola National High School. Even with evacuees on campus and a sudden change of equipment, the school community kept the session going.

Where to find us

Where DEVCON Laguna meets

Laguna, CALABARZON Β· Luzon. Chapter events happen at partner schools and venues across the area.

Quality over quantity

We grow chapters, not pins on a map

A DEVCON chapter is more than a location. It needs active officers, regular local programs, and shared standards. Becoming an active chapter follows a stringent process that tests commitment, readiness, and long-term alignment with DEVCON as a non-profit, beyond seed funds and tech hype. As a volunteer-run community, how many chapters we can open is limited by our volunteer leaders’ capacity, partner resources, and strategic national priorities.

Limited capacity, by design. As a volunteer community, we can only support so many chapters well. We will always prioritize quality over quantity, of both events and impact. See chapter application requirements
