July 2011 Information Technology Events in Cebu
I have been an TechTalker since months ago and just met the founder, **Ms. Tina Amper **last month. Ever since then, I have been inspired with the development of the local tech community here in Cebu.
The main goal of TechTalks is to encourage Tech entrepreneurs and gauge and make sure that Cebu has capability of being the Silicon Valley of the Philippines.
This month of July 2011 is when lots of Information Technology events in Cebu are taking place. Therefore, I am listing some events here that you might be interested in.
