Monday, December 9th, 5:30-9:00

Red Lion, Helena, Montana

All GIS professionals, software application developers, IT professionals and general geeks are invited to attend this event. Food, beverages and a raffle will all be provided by Esri.

Please register for the MeetUp at http://www.meetup.com/devmeetupnorthernrockies/events/152696812/ (They need you to register for a food and drink count.)

One of the highlights of this MeetUp will be the 5 minute lightning talks. The talks are only limited in time, you can talk about almost anything that can be related to GIS. We all know that you can relate anything to GIS, so pick something fun, interesting, frustrating or just geek out for 5 minutes.

If you are interested in presenting please email me at [email protected] so I can get you on the schedule and also note in your MeetUp registration that you will be presenting.

This is going to be an amazing night of food, drink, lightning talks and great people. I hope you can attend.

More info – The talk is 5 min long and can just be a short 5 min talk or you can do it with 20 slides that auto forward every 15 seconds, known as an Ignite talk.

Below are some links to what you are getting yourself into and the Ignite Denver site has some videos of presentations.
