Event Details
Building a great project is not all about business, it takes a huge amount of creativity to make your users love your website, products and apps. During Digital Creativity month we’ll be bringing together people just like you - working on innovative ideas in web design, media, gaming, graphics, film, music, marketing and advertising - to brainstorm how to make your projects come to life beautifully!
We’ll be turning our focus to product and hearing from designers and technologies pushing the boundaries to deliver innovative products that users love.

Gifture is a new way to create, browse, and share original animated GIFs on the iPhone and iPod Touch.View a Gif.
Gifture was built to give people an easy way to create content that is more fun and dynamic than static images, and higher production quality than traditional video. The result is a complete GIF-making solution with a focus on design and user experience so that the process is as easy as capturing and sharing a picture.
Rock The Post is a social networking platform for entrepreneurs to fund and swap resources. The free site is a great tool for entrepreneurs to leverage their networks and reach new ones, to fill the missing pieces of their projects. The crowdfunding and crowdsourcing site is the ideal resource for startups and companies ramping up.

What is TechMeetups?
TechMeetups has been setup to create a global network of Tech communities from San Francisco to Sydney. We believe that Tech communities are isolated and great things can be achieved if we connect within our cities and outside our borders. Our goal is to create a global Tech cluster of over 50 inter-connected Tech communities by 2013.
Our global community started out with the launch of the London Silicon Roundabout Tech community in December 2010. Following it's success in becoming one of the city's fastest growing groups, we have launched TechMeetups communities in the following locations:
Europe: London, Berlin, Cambridge, Lisbon, Manchester, Paris, Budapest,Belgrade, Amsterdam, Stockholm & Barcelona
USA: New York, Dallas, Miami & San Francisco
Asia: Bangalore, Bangkok, Mumbai, Moscow, Singapore & Sydney
Others : Dubai, Rio De Janeiro & Sao Paulo
You can see our latest list of communities here.
As part of our expansion plans we are now launching in your city. We started this group in order to bring together startups, entrepreneurs, investors, techies and webbies in and around this city.
Why become a member of TechMeetups?
Anyone who is thinking about starting their own software or web company and wants to bounce ideas off each other and meet potential partners or investors are welcome to join this group!
Our aim is to connect the various tech communities to help our members network, connect, invest and launch products in the hottest technology clusters. We plan to organise monthly meetups to cover various technology subjects that are of interest to our members.
How can you use TechMeetups to grow your company?
We are passionate about Startups & feel that Startups need all the help they can get to get off the ground. To help Startups further we launched our regular Startup Mentoring Program and listen to ideas, help with business advice and if required provide intensive hands on mentoring. This helps Startups position themselves better in the market and be more investment ready in front of our Investment Panel on ‘Investor day’. Another Startup event called 'Big Business meets Startup' has been planned to bridge the gap with the Business community as we feel both groups could learn and benefit from each other.
