The 2nd Penang Tech Meetup was awesome. We have Chan (@keesiak), the founder and CEO of Exabytes. And Kris (@kriskhaira), one of the best UI and web designer in Malaysia, who joined us since the first meetup. And Terence (@terencekung), a brand and marketing extraordinaire, gave us a lot of insights on doing social media marketing. And Ben (@benleow) from Surf7, who operates his web hosting and development company since 2002. And me, who forgot to take his own photo. Five of us from completely different walks of life came together, shared ideas, expressed opinions and exchanged knowledge for 4 hours straight. Want to join us in our next meetup in December (we do it once a month)? Just drop me an email (or comment here would be fine) to request for an invitation. Note: I figured the name of our meetup 'Penang Tech Startup Founder Meetup' is simply too long and decided to shorten it to just 'Penang Tech Meetup'.
