Hey folks,
There are over 20 Tech fests that are being conducted by several institutes across India
over the next 2 months. I'm sure my list is not completely exhaustive and I might have
missed a few. I was wondering if any of you know friends, family members, faculty members,
students, administrators associated with any of the following organisations who might be
able to help us out in participating or getting a slot for a Wiki stall or a workshop
during these tech fests?
These fests might prove to be a brilliant opportunity for us to do massive outreach
programs. I am assuming, to be on a conservative side, that each fest has a footfall of
minimum 1000 participants. Even if we are able to take part in say 10 such events during
the next 2 months, that means we have the opportunity to create awareness about Wikipedia
amongst at least 10,000 more people.
Fests scheduled for next few months are as under:

these fests as we can.
Thanks
Nitika
