Columbus Tech Community Holiday Celebration 2018
Event Information
Description
Columbus is an awesome place to be thanks to our active and passionate community. This is an invitation to all members of cbus tech, creative, and startup groups -- the visionaries, hustlers, and hackers who are building a better Columbus.
This is the fifth year we've thrown a holiday celebration Instead of our usual monthly meetings, join us for food and libations. The past four years we sold out, and we expect the same this year. Big thanks to Hopewell for hosting us!
This event is brought to you by TechLife Columbus, Tech Community Coalition, and all your local community organizers.
We welcome people with diverse backgrounds of all sorts including professionally. Even so, if your primary purpose in attending is to generate leads, recruit, or sell your services please understand that this is a non-profit event that takes a lot of time and effort to organize. Thank you in advance for your help through your sponsorship as part of your attendance. To continue that conversation, please send an email to ben@techlifecolumbus.com.
