Communication & Contact Channels

You can get together and exchange with other participants via multiple ways.

Public Channels

Matrix

In order to be able to exchange information with other participants in advance, to ask questions or to look for like-minded people for your project, we created a space to chat on Matrix.

In addition, channels for every lecture room exist:

• #38c3-hall-zigzag:events.ccc.de
• #38c3-hall-huff:events.ccc.de
