Geeks rejoice!!! January 29th at 7 pm, is the date to set, GeekFest Dubai is back in action at the Market OTB (Out Of the Box) in downtown Dubai.
What’s happening this year?:
GEEKTALKS
The usual four fifteen minute slices of weirdness, technology and general stuff, these will run from 8pm to 9pm.
TECHNOCASES
3D Printers UNLEASHED
The wild men from Jackys will be showing LIVE and IN THE FLESH the sexiest printers since someone said ‘Can we print Hovis?’ and someone else said, ‘Sure’…Green Gadgets
Heard of The Change Initiative? They’re green. They’re so green you’d be greenly envious of their greenness if you were a Martian. And they’ve got gadgets. Oh yeah. Fancy the idea of a recycled cardboard boombox, say? This is something you wouldn’t want to miss, then…Lenovo
Will be showcasing cool mobile stuff, including their buzz-inspiring mobile handsets.GAMEFEST
The t-break boys will be bringing some seriously radical games to play with.
COLLECTING OLD NOTEBOOK PCs
You got an old laptop you don’t use any more? Clean it up and bring it along and we’ll make sure it gets sent to Sri Lanka where poor young medical students from rural areas simply don’t have access to their own machines to use in studying for their exams. So bring that old PC down to GeekFest and we’ll make sure it gets a useful – and potentially life-saving – second life. Alternatively, you can always bring those old machines to The Archive and ask for Bethany or Sarah.
FOOD, DRINK, ARRANGEMENTS. STUFF.
There are cafés, there is seating, there is a sound stage and plans for music, bands and perhaps even dancing girls.
