History
OKTech started in 2015 as a grassroots meetup in Osaka called OWDDM, soon joined by its Kyoto counterpart KWDDM. For nearly a decade, the group grew through community events and shared learning. In 2025, we relaunched as OKTech, expanding our focus from web design and development to a broader range of tech fields in Kansai. What hasn’t changed is our community driven, volunteer-run spirit, and our belief that the best conversations happen both on and off the slides.
