== NewCo Tech Festival at Mozilla Mountain View (Wed. June 10) ==
* On Wednesday, June 10 Mozilla has been invited to host some activities as part of [http://newco.co NewCo], a festival for innovation where people in specific regions sign up to visit innovative companies making positive social change. We hosted this in NY earlier this month and all local staff are invited to attend:
** 2pm in the MV Commons. Our VP Platform Engineering David Bryant will share on the Mozilla mission and its relevance for the technology community.
** 6pm - 8pm also in the MV Commons. The after-festival party will happen - come mix with hundreds of other professionals in tech right in our own office.
* In addition, NewCo has provided Mozilla with 20 complimentary Gold level passes which enable you to check out some of the other companies in the festival; these are first-come first-serve so if you are interested, sign up now:
** Go to [http://sv.newco.co sv.newco.co] to see the full list of companies (and more info on NewCo).
** Use code Mozil100SV15 at checkout.
