Ardunio has announced "Arduino Day" - a worldwide celebration of Arduino’s
first 10 years.
I have registered for an event in Mumbai for the same, awaiting for their
approval now.
If any one interested we can club somewhere on the same day with
discussions/sessions on Ardunio hacks.
*About Arduino Day*

24 hours full of events – both official and independent, anywhere around
the world – where people interested in Arduino can meet, share their
experiences, and learn more.*
*ho can participate?*
*Arduino invites all Arduino user groups, makerspaces, hackerspaces,
fablabs, associations, teachers, pros, and newbies to participate. Let’s

*It doesn’t matter whether you are an expert or a newbie, an engineer,
