| 148 | +<h1>Target Audience</h1> |
| 149 | + |
| 150 | +<p>Many people interested in quantum computing face challenges such as: |
| 151 | + |
| 152 | +- Limited access to hands-on, collaborative environments |
| 153 | +- Difficulty finding guidance when contributing to open-source projects |
| 154 | +- Lack of local communities to exchange ideas and learn together |
| 155 | + |
| 156 | +This event aims to address these challenges by bringing people together in a collaborative space where learning, building, and networking happen simultaneously. </p> |
