[CANCELLED] TAB Talk: Nerdalize

[CANCELLED] Due to the enormous media attention after the announcement of Nerdalize’s cooperation with Eneco, Boaz Leupe is not able to give a TAB Talk this Thursday. We hope he will visit us on a later date.

“How do you go from idea to company?”

Boaz Leupe, co-founder and CEO of the Groningen-based company Nerdalize, will give a talk during the Thursday Afternoon Borrel. Instead of hosting servers in data centers, Nerdalize hosts servers in people’s homes. This way homeowners get free heating, business save on costs (since the servers don’t neet to be cooled), and we all profit from a lower carbon footprint.

At 16:00, the TAB starts as usual. At 17:00, Boaz will give a 20-minute TAB Talk about what’s involved in going from an idea to a company. After that, the TAB will continue.

TAB Talks are a new concept developed by the ComExA (Committee of External Affairs). During the TAB, we invite interesting companies or PhD'ers to give a short technical talk about their activities. Speakers are invited to stay after their talk, to enjoy a drink and get into discussion with students.
