HackerNest Boston January Tech Social

Drinks on us. That's right: free water/soft drinks and pizza.

HackerNest Tech Socials (http://hackernest.com/cities/) are a fun, relaxed way to connect with your local tech community. Atmosphere: chill, friendly, unpretentious, agenda-free (no sales pitch, yo), and brimming with UltraSmart(TM) people.

Follow us on Twitter (http://srn.kr/HNtweets) and Instagram (http://hckrn.st/1WT3Xoh), like us on Facebook (http://srn.kr/HNTOfb), hi-5 us in person. :)

The typical Tech Social schedule:

• 6:00pm: folks arrive, grab drinks, socialize
• 7:00pm: quick intro, thank sponsors, quick announcements
• 7:10pm: back to chatting with interesting new friends
• 9:00pm: go home exhausted from great conversations

We are super excited to have our January Tech Social at Artisan's Asylum since we'll be the first Meetup group to host an event in their space. Artisan's Asylum is a maker space that has lots of cool toys and a creative vibe. They have a regular tour of the space at 8 pm for those that want to check out their shared resources, meet some of the people who do their work here, and learn more about what it's like to be a member of the Artisan's Asylum community.
