Tucson Tech Talks – The Experiment

What do you get when the Tucson tech community walks into a party at a bar? Tucson Tech Talks at Sky Bar, a 100% solar powered bar. An event that provides the technology community with presentations by industry experts of various fields, along with technology exhibits by local artists, musicians, nonprofits, and businesses.

Join us on Thursday, June 7th for our first Tech Talk Forum with presenters from Microsoft, Xerocraft, and The Saguaro National Park! The one thing these various topics have in common is technology. Learn about what these technologists think about leadership & women in technology, various tech machines available today, and cacti microchip implants. In between talks a DJ will spin some original industrial melodies inspired by drum machines. Try your hand at playing a theremin and mingle with the wide diversity of technology folks. Watch a 3D printer create. You won’t want to miss this one of a kind event!

Get in on the groundfloor of this NEW FREE EVENT. Register today for a FREE DRINK TICKET (limited to the first 40 people to register). Get a nerdy dose of techy goodness on…
