Hobby Depot: bring your hobby to Assembly
Do you have a hobby, that has something to do with technology or computers? Would you like to tell about it to others and perhaps even show it at Assembly?
Well now you have a chance to do that! Assembly Summer 2010 presents a new concept called Hobby Depot. We are inviting enthusiasts and hobby communities to present their hobbies and passions to the best computer festival in Finland - Assembly! We will choose 2-3 applicants who fill the requirements of Hobby Depot. We will provide you a booth space to present your activities, visibility in AssemblyTV and website. Plus access to your staff to the event as well.
So what does it take to get to Hobby Depot?
We want communities, groups or associations to join in. It doesn't matter how you have organized yourselves, the main point is that you are active and passionate about it. And ofcourse, be ready to present you hobby and activities in the Assembly event.
The hobby or activity should somehow be related to technology and/or computers, we are looking for "assembly spirited" hobbies, who would fit nicely to our event. We don't want to define too strict borders what is acceptable and what is not.
We will offer you a space from Hobby Depot area to present your activities and visibility in our website and AssemblyTV. Mikrobitti is also supporting Hobby Depot and will provide some visibility to you on their media as well.
