Nerdz-Con "25 Open Discussion
May 10th, 2025 at 4:51am
 
Hello All,

This year's NerdzCon will be 9/20/2025.

I need to start hammering out details and ideas and I need your help.

What would you like see at NerdzCon?

Are you more for education or social?

Would you invite others to come if it were open?

Should we keep some part of the event Picogroup Only?


Would you be willing to volunteer to present or contribute in some way?

On my calendar.  I don't currently have anything in mind to present.  Will update if I put something together. 

This is our opportunity to discuss scope technique and other repair industry topics in person with you and others in attendance.  Also to use demo equipment we don't currently own on-vehicle before buying.

An optional dinner should be on the schedule.  Ask everyone to opt-in/out at an appropriate time closer to the event(attendees pay for their own dinner).

I will put this on my calendar as well.
I like the dinner idea. 
On the topic of education/social, I would say that last year was a good mix of both.  just a group of people brought together for interest in the world of pico.

I believe Trevor considered having a raffle last year. I was thinking it might be good to raffle Autonerdz store credit for anyone that registers for the 2025 Nerdz Conference. For example state here and at the NerdzCon registration page what the store credit is if you win the raffle. $X registration through the store website gets you one entry in the raffle. Raffle winner announced at NerdzCon.

Registration for NerdzCon is finally live. Check it our here https://www.autonerdz.com/training/nerdzcon

Registration is $50 per person and is open to you and your guests regardless of PicoGroup status. I am not announcing this to the general public this year.

If you plan to attend and would like to share a case study or technique that you use there are still presentation slots available.


If you register before Friday September 15th you'll receive a NerdzCon t-shirt.

* Edit changed date for cutoff.

I have uploaded my Power Point file and relevant Pico files to the Drop Site.  See Member Files>Grant Baker>Nerdz-Con 2025 3 Phase Fuel Pumps

Thanks to Trevor for putting on another great Nerdz Conference and everyone that made the effort to get together!
