About

The idea

The Nest is a coworking space, created by Vratsa Software Society as a follow-up in the implementation of our goal – creating an IT community in Vratsa that will provide quality education to the people of Vratsa, thus giving them the opportunity to have a challenging and well-paid job in their hometown.

We started with programming courses, which we then expanded with a digital marketing course, and now with a course in design.

We organize annual events such as Hack Vratsa, Rails Girs, Code Week Vratsa. We also invite inspirational lectures for interesting seminars.

We participate in other initiatives, and we have created valuable partnerships andthus becoming recognizable. We have created a growing digital community in Vratsa.

The next step in this direction was to create a place, where people from the community will gather with the idea to give them the opportunity to create new contacts, implement their projects, to start to continued their development, to find new friends and partners. You can also be a part of this community.
