The Geekest Drink

let x = nerds + beer

What it is

The short answer: we’re going to the pub.

What it isn’t

There’s loads of brilliant networking events for us techies in the north-east, like the excellent SuperMondays or Thursday Fizz. That’s not what we’re about — we just want to get a bunch of geeks around a table. Think making friends, not contacts. Obviously there’s plenty of shop talk to be had, but more important is getting some of Newcastle’s great tech people together in some of Newcastle’s great pubs.

Are you coming or what?

If you’re up for a couple — and meeting some new people — why not add your name to the list, and check out what other folk are up to on Twitter?

Of course, if you don’t want to be listed, you’re still more than welcome on the night!
