Synopsis
iCentrum in conjunction with Aston Science Park are proud to host the NxtGen User Group.

NXTGEN has extended beyond the standard model of the developer User Group and has moved it beyond a generally loose, haphazard grouping of individuals to become a dynamic, 'branded', fun professional and influential organisation. NXTGEN liaise closely with Microsoft, whilst maintaining their independence. All founder members have recently been invited out to the TechEd Developers 2007 in Barcelona, Microsoft's showpiece conference in Europe.

We will also work with other user groups to cross fertilise members. We hold monthly meetings, comprising of one or more presentations, news items, interviews, prizes and food. We will also hold more informal evenings - pie and a pint nights, just to chill, have something to eat and talk 'techie' - these will sometimes even feature a 'special guest.'

If you would like to attend to learn about technology and contribute to the technical community please register your interest to find out more.
