Brussels Girl Geek Dinner

Schweppes has a new taste out: Pamplemouss’/Pompelmoes’.
They insisted that we take some of these cans home to try them out and tell everyone what we think.

And thanks to their recent partnership with Belgian fashion designer (and everyone’s favourite mad hatter) Elvis Pompilio, we’ve added some Pompilio styled straws and badges to the mix, too.

Here’s the tv ad with Uma Thurman once more, just because… do you actually need an excuse to feature Uma Thurman?

Thanks to Douwe Egberts the girl geeks at tonight’s BGGD42 in Winkelhaak, Antwerp will go home with a selection of Douwe Egberts L´OR EspressO capsules. But why wouldn’t be taste this top-quality Arabica coffee during the girl geek dinner event? I’ll bring the cups (and some cream and sugar). But who has a Nespresso machine to try the cups out? Let us know in the comments!

In the early days of Brussels Girl Geek Dinners, sweepstakes were invariably organised as a TV show telephone game (often dubbed belspeldelspel by the girl geeks). Today, obviously, it would be a Twitter sweepstake. What can girl geeks win at tonight’s BGGD42 in Winkelhaak, Antwerp?

One of these three LaCie CurrenKey USB Flash Drives, one with a gold(16GB), one with a silver (8GB), and one with a bronze (4GB) finish.

Brussels Girl Geek Dinners are not only about listening to interesting (tech) speakers and meeting the other girl geeks in an informal environment, but also about trying out new stuff. Like making beer cocktails.

Liefmans on the rocks offers you a whole new beer experience, a fruity drink served over ice for the ultimate summer refreshment. With notes of strawberry, raspberry, wild cherry, blueberry and elderberry this combination creates a stylish, fruity, sparkling and elegant experience. With the cocktails Liefmans even goes the extra mile in the world of beer experiences.

The attendees list for #BGGD42 filled up really quickly. But no worries: there are always last minute cancellations and usually we get all the reserves in!
