It is a participant-oriented meeting where the attendees choose a topic or an agenda and discuss the particular agenda. There is an exchange of ideas and opinions. At the Field Day, most of the events will be talks and discussions conducted by the attendees.
We welcome student leaders and members of tech communities across Sri Lanka. Most of the attendees will be undergrad students.
