Brussels Girl Geek Dinner

We’re firing up for Brussels Girl Geek Dinner number four (BGGD #4 from now on) so mark this date in your diaries:

>> Saturday 29 March 18:30-21:00 CET somewhere in Ghent <<

This time, however, it will be a slightly different Girl Geek Dinner: we’re teaming up for the occasion with Barcamp Ghent and ITPro Geek Dinner. This means:

1. Saturday 29 March turns into some kind of a full-day Belgian Uber Geek Fest :-)
2. During the day (09:00 – 18:00) all geek unite for Barcamp Ghent. Organizer is Thomas Bouve, and the event takes place in the offices of IBBT (Zuiderpoort Office Park, Gent). Registration is open at barcampgent.wikispaces.com – so far there are 62 subscribers but only 6 of them are female. A barcamp is an open, user generated conference whose content is provided by participants. The one in Ghent is the first edition, but there have been several Barcamp Brussels before so have a look at their Flickr sets if you want to know what it’s like.
   
3. During the evening the boy geeks go to ITPro Geek Dinner #8 and the girl geeks go to Brussels Girl Geek Dinner #4. We’re still looking for a location and for sponsors to keep dinner free for both, but it will be in Ghent and we try and get all the hungry geeks in the one room. ITPro Geek Dinners have been around for a few years now and are organized by Serge van Ginderachter.
4. There will be no speaker for BGGD #4 because those who attended Barcamp Ghent first will have had enough of those.
5. We’re aiming to get every Dinner Geek (even the boy geeks) a goodie bag though

The wiki for BGGD #4 will be up soon. As usual we will use that to organise the attendee list. If you’e on the list, you’re in and you get free food and drinks and a goodie bag :-)
