Well it really has been too long. Such was the popularity of our first Girl Geek Dinner in the North East (the version 1.0), we really hope you can make it to the next Girl Geek event, Leeds 2.0. Timed perfectly on the 3rd December to coincide with the first jingle bells.

This time round we have a new venue at The Loft on Lower Briggate and with full disabled access. I think that you’ll agree, that opting for a stylish and smart setting best befits the Girl Geek image and allows for a creative space for our purposes.

The Girl Geeks will be in the Loft reception which has a large seating and bar area. Perfect for networking and incidental Girl Geek meetings.

I’m also delighted to share that our main speaker for the evening will be Monica Tailor the Marketing Director from Kilo 75 one of the leading web design agencies in the north-east. Monica’s primary role is to define and deliver growth strategies for internet based businesses. She has worked in new media since 1999 and over the past nine years has worked on internet projects with the likes of Apple, Cisco, Unilever and Vernons. After joining kilo75 in 2002 Monica continues to take what she describes as a ‘hands-on approach’ to project management, whilst maintaining flawlessly her image as a leading Leeds entrepreneur. A more than worthy candidate for a fabulous Girl Geek Speaker.

For just £15, you can enjoy some drinks, delightful xmas-y nibbles and opportunity to rub shouldars with the city’s brightest creatives, technologists, programmers, entrepreneurs, marketeers, PR professionals and creative & digital girls. And yeah yeah, we’ll have a smattering of Guy Geeks too ;-)

Our main sponsor is Digital 2020 who will make sure that Girl Geek’s in attendance are provided with a welcome drink. We sold-out FAST last time so do take this opportunity to reserve your place and enjoy what will be an highly sociable and worthwhile event.

Registration is open now via our main Leeds Girl Geek site

The evening will be relaxed, informal, friendly and with just the right amount of xmas chill. We really hope you feel as welcome and excited as at our first meeting and share this occasion with some new Girl Geeks too!
