Every session I run for a student community or a public college is free. That's a deliberate choice, not a placeholder until I start charging.
The actual return
TechVerse Enclave exists because a handful of people said yes to unglamorous, unpaid sessions early on. The 200+ students I've mentored didn't arrive because of a marketing budget — they arrived because someone showed up for their college first. That compounds in ways a speaking fee never would.
Where the line is
Free for students and public institutions. Corporate workshops and paid consulting are a different conversation — write in and we'll figure out what's fair for both sides.
What I ask in return
Nothing beyond an audience that's actually willing to build something during the session. I'll bring the content and the live demo. You bring the room.
