Our new location is the Shell Building! Find out more at http://theshellbuilding.com/
You can park on the street outside the building, or at one of several nearby parking garages.
Enter through the front lobby, and take the elevators up to the 11th floor.
If you take the Metrolink, get off at 8th and Pine or the Civic Center.

A few rules and guidelines:

1. Condense your idea into a one sentence description and a 30 second pitch.

2. Share your idea openly, and respect other people's ideas. No stealing.

3. If you truly have secret stuff keep it to yourself.

4. Give as much as you get, if not more.

5. When brainstorming, people may run in an unintended direction with your idea. Go with it.


Below is an itenerary of the night, which is subject to change and things taking more/less time than we expect:

6:00p - 6:15p Open mingling, eating food, etc.

6:20p A short introduction to Geek Night, and a word from our sponsors

6:30p Idea presenters from last Geek Night will briefly talk about their ideas, and the progress they've made since the last Geek Night.

6:45p Idea presenters will come to the front and present their ideas in 30 seconds or less. As each idea is presented, it will be written on a giant post-it note, and the presenter will take the note to their spot in the room and put it on the wall.


6:55p Everyone forms groups around the ideas they are interested in, roughly 5-10 people per group, and brainstorms for 30 minutes

7:30 Break for food and beer.

7:45p Another round of brainstorming, everyone picks new groups. If anyone wants to surrender their idea spot they can, and new people can step forward with idea pitches to fill the vacant spots.

8:20p Idea presenters will come to the front and each get a few minutes to talk about what they discovered and the ideas that were generated.

8:35p Overflow for anything going long, otherwise free time to continue discussing ideas.

9p Go home!


Special thanks to our sponsors!
