Event: Digital Island Meetup (TechLudd), Cork
Uncategorized August 9th, 2008So we’re heading to the REAL capital for a meetup at the end of August. 
The Corkonians are well known for their innovation and there are lots of cool startups down there. Should be a bit of fun.
What:
Digital Island Meetups are completely free thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, and open to anyone who wants to attend. There may even be cash behind the bar on the night! Come along and meet new people, and make new contacts and have some fun too.
When & Where:
28th August from 7:30PM • Cork International Airport Hotel • Cork
Dress code, for people who care about such things, is whatever you like.
The OpenDemo will return for those who want feedback on cool stuff they’re doing right now only 8 spaces but if a lot of people are interested we might expand it. Go register to demo now slots are allocated on a first come first served basis.
Sponsors:
Sponsors get to support a great event but also will get promotion with links and logos via posts on Digital Media Island and via announcements at the event itself although we’re flexible and willing to work with people to run the best events possible.
We’re looking for sponsors right now so please drop me a line at anton [at] digitalmediaforum [dot] net for details.
