Last Wednesday afternoon, June 1
st
–after 2 long years of not attending any event because of the pandemic– I’m thrilled to say we went to a technology event. What’s more, it wasn’t just any event…

We went to Globant’s Tech N’ Fest!

As soon as I got there, I noticed the huge number of attendees. Most of them were programmers, eager to learn and share with some of the biggest names in technology in Mexico. 

I received 4 tokens that were exclusive for the event and could be exchanged for drinks, snacks, and gifts. When I arrived, as a welcome, I was also offered to choose a gift: a cap, a t-shirt, a hat, or a metal cup for water. I chose the first option and went to listen to the first presentation with my GX-Glober
cap already on.

The hostess,
Ophelia Pastrana
,
right away started sharing her passion to learn more about very geek topics: Blockchain, Crypto, Gaming, Metaverse, Artificial Intelligence. Also, these are the topics presented on stage by experts such as
Aura López
,
Tiburcio de la Cárcova
,
Marcela Manrique
,
Luis Enriquez
,
Nelly Ortiz
,
Pablo Stanley
and, of course,
Guibert Englebienne
, Co-Founder of Globant and President of
Globant X
and Globant LatAm, the company that recently purchased
GeneXus
.

You can relive the event here (in spanish):

After the presentations, it was time to chat and I decided to approach Ophelia and Aura. 

It was amazing to have the chance to hang out with them at the event because I have been following their careers in the world of technology for a long time.

Then… the support team of GeneXus de México went in search of Guibert. Among so many people, we finally met him!

We said hi, shook hands, took a picture and, in a fascinated mood, we promised to work side by side, now as GX-Globers. 

Of course, after learning comes the fun: with music, food, and drinks, the day came to an end. That evening was definitely magical.
