Summit Awesome

Food and drink

We meet in cities around the UK, generally kicking off with some food, followed by drinks in the afternoon.

Talk tech

Summit Awesome is all about meeting fellow designers and devs. Talk about all things tech, the industry, and everything in between.

Get hacking

We've held two hackathons, and plan to hold a lot more. Meet up, form teams, write code, and build products.

Past events

Oxford

Food and Drink

Congregating in the charming city of Oxford, this meetup managed to attract designers and developers from far afield as Hampshire and San Francisco! The old traditional pubs were enjoyed, along with the nightlife a little later on. A huge thanks to Campaign Monitor for sponsoring drinks.

Manchester

Hackathon

After a successful hackathon in Birmingham over 6 months ago, we decided to do it again. This time expanding to a much larger number of people. Joined by some new faces, we were hosted at the amazingly friendly TechHub Manchester. In the evening we broke away to Kosmonaut just to socialise, play table tennis and eat.

Manchester

Food and Drink

We met in Manchester, a place we hoped to meet many new faces and boy did we! With the Deaf Institute taking their time to serve us our food, we moved on to the Font Bar for food accompanied with some rather pleasent drinks (and cocktails!)

Leeds

Food and Drink

This time, Summit Awesome headed further north for a change of scenery, and the introduction of plenty of new faces. Far too much food was eaten at (the highly recommended) Red's True BBQ, Leeds' finest beers were drunk, and a good time was had by all.

Birmingham

Hackathon

After a few lunchtime drinks and burgers, we headed to Aston Science Park to begin a 24 hour hackathon. Many pixels were pushed and lines of code written, and eventually, cool shit was made.
