Young Rewired State: Festival of Code

Young Rewired State describes itself as “a network of software developers and designers aged 18 and under.” Their annual Festival of Code kicked off today, a week-long event that stretches across the UK and encourages teams to brainstorm ideas and execute upon them; the outcome being a finished app with prizes up for grab.

Brokers Direct was there to document the day, which included a talk from GatherContent‘s Mark Young. Working on our first app, Lodger, it was an excellent opportunity to pick Mark’s brains on creating a product and acquiring users, especially as GatherContent boasts 10,000 of them.

It was quite spectacular to witness such young, bright individuals in action.
