<h2>About</h2>
<h4>Tech Night LDN</h4>
<p>Tech Night LDN is a mini-conference packed with talks, workshops and networking for students and recent graduates who are curious about technology. Expect an evening of inspiration and motivation.</p>
<p>We believe that in order to truly make strides towards achieving diversity in tech, we need to include all genders and different races in the conversation. Even if you’re new to technology, or are really passionate about it, join us!</p>
<h4>Kano Competition</h4>
<p>This year, we're also cohosting an app competition with Kano, the <a href="kanocompetition/index.html" target="_blank">Kano University Competition</a>. Open to current students and recent graduates (within the last 2 years), the competition aims to give you the chance to impact the next generation whilst encouraging open-source development.</p>
<p>The winning group will have the opportunity to present their work at Tech Night, and the app will be released on the Kano OS for 70k+ users. The winning group will also win a Kano kit each. Full details <a href="kanocompetition/index.html" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
