I'm KenI'm the Evangelist at WebGeekI spread the good news about “WebGeek and of course Tech Scene in the Philippines!
REMEMBER TO HAVE A STORY HERE.In the early 90s, Silicon Valley wasn’t
Mention: WebGeek, DevCon, Smart DevNetand more
The word “hacker” has an unfairly negative connotation from being portrayed in the media as people who break into computers. In reality, hacking just means building something quickly or testing the boundaries of what can be done. Like most things, it can be used for good or bad, but the vast majority of hackers I’ve met tend to be idealistic people who want to have a positive impact on the world.The Hacker Way is an approach to building that involves continuous improvement and iteration. Hackers believe that something can always be better, and that nothing is ever complete. They just have to go fix it — often in the face of people who say it’s impossible or are content with the status quo.
Inspire them to take action to be a part of the tech ecosystem To build apps and hacksTo join or build startups
absence of a information hub for local community gatherings and eventslack of a localized forum for tech enthusiast and IT professionals
WebGeek is an online venue for tech enthusiast, professionals and students wherein they can share ideas and collaborate with each other. Apart from that WebGeek also covers in our site the fast growing technology scene with a focus here in the Philippines. Events are regularly organized by WebGeek in order to promote local talent, initiatives and ecosystem. Connecting the local tech practitioners to foreign companies that do exciting stuff is also an agenda at WebGeek events.
