Please join us on Wednesday, May 4th for our next meeting of the Central INdiana Linux User Group (CINLUG)!

Kim Brand[1] is on a mission to empower children to learn through doing.  He, with his son, Adam, founded 1st Maker Space[2] to help students discover a passion for learning by providing makerspaces and an engaging hands-on curriculum.  Kim will tell us about makerspaces and what can be done about the loss of firsthand learning.

After the discussion, Kim may share with us what he has been up to in his other company, Server Partners[3], with their newest innovation of containerizing & deploying Samba 4 with Active Directory to replace Windows Server for small businesses.

  Kim Brand is an Indianapolis born entrepreneur who has
  founded and grown several technology companies since
  graduating in 1975 from Purdue University with a degree
  in mechanical engineering technology.  In 2014, with his
  son Adam, he co-founded 1st Maker Space, LLC – an
  education technology company that helps educators design,
  build and sustain makerspaces.  Their aim was to bring
  more hands on learning to schools and more enthusiasm for
  learning to students.

  Kim still leads Server Partners, a Linux based Small
  Business File Server development and support company.
  Over 100 customers have used this server ranging from law
  firms to non-profits.

Come join us, in-person, at Moser Consulting's facility[4].  The meeting starts at 19:00 (7:00 PM) EDT.  (Many thanks to Moser Consulting[5] for allowing us to use their facilities!  Please know that their policy is that unvaccinated attendees will need to wear a mask.)

The meeting will be simultaneously broadcast over Google Meet[6] for those who cannot attend in person.
