Earlier this year, Arielle Patrice Scott (an awesome young lady who you should definitely check out) gathered a group of driven young people, fora meetup where they talked about their personal brands. It’s since evolved into a meetup for them to support each other and help each other achieve what they want to do. That meet-up has since become GenJuice, a meetup for young driven people to help each other reach specific professional goals.
Arielle explains more about GenJuice in this video:
When she first told me about it, I was really excited about the idea. Using social media to help young people achieve their dreams – that’s something I really believe in and want to be a part of. That’s what I love the most about social media. For me social media is not really about helping big companies market their products (don’t get me wrong, it’s useful for that, but that’s not where my passion lies). To me, social media is a great platform for individuals to achieve their dreams.
So, I’ve decided to start a GenJuice in Singapore. I think it’s something that could be really great for young people here, and I’m really looking forward to it.
If it sounds like something that you’d be interested in, I’d love to have you come. You can view the event details (and RSVP) on the Facebook event, but basically, it’s on 6 March, 6pm, at Hackerspace Singapore.
Looking forward to seeing you there. =).
could you tell me what hackerspace is all about? thanks

Gawd I missed this one! Saw this post from the GenJuice Press page and thought it would be a great idea to attend.
How did it go by the way?
