IQ Inc. Tech Trivia
Think you know a lot about IT? This first-ever IQ Inc Tech trivia night at Mario's East Side Saloon will test the knowledge of participants in areas like networks, software development, Agile methodology and more "fun" topics like sci-fi and gaming. Go it alone or bring a team of up to six people but, either way, be prepared to compete and hopefully go home with the top prize. Participants will have an opportunity to network (the talking kind) before the game begins. Appetizers and two drink tickets per person will also be provided.
When: Tuesday, March 26, 6-8 p.m.
Where: Mario's East Side Saloon, 5442 Walnut St.
