Chic Meets Geek: Bigger, Better, and Breaking Barriers

ChicMeetsGeek hits San Francisco again this Thursday, June 3rd at the Auttomatic Lounge.  Every ChicMeetsGeek event features a nonprofit beneficiary; this time, the chic and geek communities will come together to benefit the Glide Foundation, an organization that helps San Francisco’s poor and marginalized populations overcome the barriers of poverty and violence.

Come dressed for a fabulous night out, but prepare to be inspired during the conference-like panel of speakers including geeky ladies, chic gentlemen, and – of course – surprise performers as well.  Guests will have the opportunity to interact with speakers through an exclusive Q&A session.  As the night goes on, the glamor comes out with a dazzling fashion show and silent auction.  All throughout the evening, beverages will flow freely at the open bar, alongside hand-crafted hor-d’oeuvres (and to satiate the sophisticated San Franciscan palate, bacon and truffles will also make a unique appearance).  Special guests and speakers include:

• Jay Nicolas Sario – Designer & Project Runway contestant

• Charlie Ayers – Author & Executive Chef

• Raul Navalta (aka RJ KoolRaul) – America’s Best Dance Crew contestant

• Joel Goodrich – San Francisco Philanthropist and Socialite

• Sukhinder Singh Cassidy – CEO of Polyvore

• Lily Kanter – Co-Founder & CEO of Serena and Lily

• Victoria Ransom – Co-Founder & CEO of WildFire App

• Wendy Lea – CEO of Get Satisfaction

• Amy Muller – Co-Founder of Get Satisfaction

So grab a ticket to expand beyond your social circle, and help change lives while you’re at it. As a special offer for the first ten Girls in Tech members to register, get 20% off with this discount code: GirlsInTechRock.

While the evening will be livestreamed here, the event is an immersive experience (when else could you see Dave McClure dance to Lady GaGa?), so come out if you can!
