We had a great time at our last event!

Follow us on Twitter (http://twitter.com/hackernest) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/hackernest/), like us on Facebook (http://facebook.com/hackernest), hi-5 us in person!

The typical Tech Social agenda:

• folks arrive, grab drinks, socialize

• quick announcements, thank sponsors

• back to chatting

• head home, exhilarated from great conversations!
