Agenda
San Francisco TV Hackfest 2013 - Bringing Technology & Creative Industries Together
DATE: Thursday February 7-8, 2013.
TIME: Varies
WHERE: The Moscone Center is located at 747 Howard Street, at the corner of Third & Howard streets, San Francisco. CA 9410
How It Works - Hacking
All API, SDKs and briefs (we have a dozen from sponsors and open source with another 100 available) will be made available online at 8am on February 6th, 2013 - 24 hours before the kickoff of the event. This will allow everyone time to digest and begin to formulate ideas and tackle the briefs.How It Works - Forming Groups
We are going to run it similarly to Startup Weekend format where we have a microphone out and people can simply start sharing their ideas to the crowd and groups are formed ad hoc - generally. Maximum six people per group.However, we have also opened up a Linkedin Group which you can see below if you want to start networking early. Start posting on ideas and get to know people ahead of time if you like. Try and keep the groups under six people.
Food and Drink
We unfortunately are unable to bring in food due to restrictions at Moscone Center but there is a cafe in the building. However free drinks will be available compliments of our sponsor 5-Hour Energy!
