## How is a blog reviewed?
### How is a blog reviewed?

We try to keep contributing as easy as possible but we do like to do a small review. After submitting the PR we will ask you to find a colleague who can review the contents of your blog.

## Contributing a talk or workshop

Similar to contributing with a blog, you can also contribute with a talk or workshop. You'll follow the same steps, with the exception of the content being a talk in [data/talks](https://github.com/iodigital-com/io-technology/tree/develop/data/talks) or workshop in [data/workshops](https://github.com/iodigital-com/io-technology/tree/develop/data/workshops).

### Does this mean I need to give the talk or workshop?

No, you're never "forced" to give a talk or workshop. We merely use this as an overview for us to see what we could offer to events. Also, people organising events might find your talk or workshop interesting and reach out to us. We can then always discuss it with you.

## Who can I reach out to regarding the tech_hub?

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to [Dave Bitter](mailto:[email protected]) or [Brecht De Ruyte](mailto:[email protected])!
