Venue
Nest, Ghent
Gears is Ghent. So we chose a unique location in the heart of this vibrant city. Nest is a creative hub in the former city library of Ghent. Combined with King Albert Park, the perfect location for Gears during summer.
Gears is a conference by and for developers who think beyond their boundaries. Who want to submerge themselves in next generation technology. Who want to explore, share, surprise and be surprised. Gears dares them: What would you create in a world without constraints?
