DONATE YOUR BRAIN TO CHARITY FOR TWO HOURS
Good news Brainyhacks fans! The Brainyhacks is back - this time in collaboration with the wonderful ladies at SheSaysUK and generously sponsored by Computer Arts Magazine and Digital Gurus.
Calling all creatives, strategists and planners - we need you to donate your brain to charity. We have a great brief from a not-for-profit organisation and you have two hours to solve it. We need 8 creative teams made up of 5 people and, as this is a SheSays event, your team needs to have at least two female creatives to enter. Your idea will be judged at the end of the night by our awesome judging panel and the winning team all get a prize. Get your team of five together and sign up by clicking the sign up button to the right. If you don't want to be in a team you can come along, watch and have a drink by signing up on EventBrite here. In the meantime take a look at how the first Brainyhacks went down in July here and start getting excited!
