Title: Rhine-Main/Germany Meetup, October 1st
Post by: KeepTypingAndNobodyCries on Mon, 22 August 2016, 09:11:25
Hi,

over the last week me and some of my friends were putting together a plan to bring a mechanical keyboard meetup to Germany.
After we got the most basic things sorted out, I'd like to invite you to our meetup!

MECHANICON 2016

Date: October 1st, 2016
Time: 16:00–19:00
Location: ab+zu, Darmstadt, Germany, https://www.qundg.de/ab-und-zu/ (https://www.qundg.de/ab-und-zu/)

This will be our first meetup in Darmstadt! We'll meet in a friendly atmosphere in a cool location to show off and talk about our keyboards.


Do I want this?

Attendance is free! Come over, chat about your hobby, bring your keyboards, try other keyboards, trade/eat/laugh/ :)

There will be free pizza and drinks at fair prices from the venue!


I want this!

We created a Meetup group. Just join us and RSVP for the event, so we know how many people/keyboards to expect:

What's next?

If anybody wants to do a talk or a workshop on a mk-related topic, this would be awesome! PM me.

I will contact some vendors to invite them to our meetup. Maybe we are in luck and someone manages to come around and e.g. gives a talk for us.

Also, I would like to host a giveaway/raffle, if possible.

Any vendors that would like to sponsor the meetup in any way, please contact me! :3


If you have any questions left, comment here or PM me.


Spread the word!

Hey everyone, just wanted to keep you up to date, in case anyone is interested.

With WASD and the Keyboard Company we have our first sponsors supporting us.

And we have our first presentation!

The great folks over at https://wooting.nl (https://wooting.nl) will join us on October 1st and give a talk!

They can give us a lot of insights about their new product, analog switches, starting a keyboard/kickstarter company or the real technical side of keyboards.

If you are interested in a specific topic, let me know!
