Coding from Beach is the leading industry group for technologists on the Sunshine Coast. The group has

place on Thursday 7th Feb 2019 from 6-8pm.


Sunshine Coast Producers Group


The Sunshine Coast Producer Group is a new monthly meet-up designed for local electronic
music producers and DJs based on the Sunshine Coast. The group aims to build a community of people
who are interested in developing their skills as either DJs or producers, put local talent on the map, foster
collaborations and develop young talent.

Meetups take place on the second Thursday of every month with the exception of the inaugural meetup
which is being held on Saturday 23rd Feb due to touring special guest availability.




Barception: A New On-site Barista & Reception
Service Give The Hub A Unique Flavour
They say technologists are machines that convert coffee into code so we've launched "barception" - an
on-site barista and reception service at the Hub.


Hub members can now start their day with coffee and a conversation in the Hub's cool outdoor Co-Op
canteen before heading inside to build their digital businesses.


Council has partnered with SevGen Indigenous Corporation who will operate the barception service as
part of their social enterprise activities to provide opportunities for young talent. SevGen currently
operate other Deadly Espresso sites on the Sunshine Coast, including a cafe at Eumundi and a coffee
kiosk at Noosa Reviva.


SevGen Director, Terri Waller said "We're very pleased to be at the Digital Hub and have had received
many messages of support from the Peregian Beach community who are excited to have us here. This
will be a great environment for our Deadly mob to grow and develop their skills."
