GeekUp Leeds is celebrating being TWO this month! In true tradition, we ask GeekUp folk to bring along a cake, preferably hand-crafted in some way, with an optional geeky theme!
PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGE OF VENUE. We've moved temporarily to Mr Foley's as the Lounge terrace is getting a makeover. Regrettably, this means there will be no wheelchair access this month.
Apart from there being lots of cake, we will be following the regular format with some 20:20 presentations... (still sorting this out, if you have something you'd like to present on, do let us know!)
