Seattle Geek Week – August 13th to August 22nd, 2010 – features 10 days of events hosted by various individuals, organizations and community groups. There will be conferences, workshops, meetups and, of course, parties!

Featured events include TechStars’ opening night party on August 13th, the pii2010 (privacy identity innovation) conference on August 17th-19th and Gnomedex 10 on August 19th-21st.

While each event is independently produced, Seattle Geek Week is organized by a team of volunteers on a mission to:

• Learn from others through conferences, workshops and meetups • Support innovative people, ideas and businesses • Meet new people and have fun with friends • Experiment with what’s possible…it’s the first Seattle Geek Week, so there’s no telling what will happen!

It’s about bringing together both local residents and out-of-town visitors to celebrate creativity and build community, Seattle-style. Visit SeattleGeekWeek.com to learn more about the events taking place, and to add your own event to the program.
