TypoArabic

Type Tech Meetup
2021-02-26 16:00 - 19:00 (Europe/London) | Munich, Munich, Germany
Titus is going to present some findings of his historical research in a venue that brings together designers and developers. TTM is designed to bridge the gap between research, design, and technical implementation, and provides an ideal discussion forum for TypoArabic, as the conference description makes clear:
TypeTech MeetUp has been created to fill a gap: it needed a place where font engineers and designers, web designers and developers, industry experts and tech & business professionals can exchange ideas on technical topics and develop a better designed future together.
The TypeTech MeetUp is a forum to jointly develop, discuss and document the current state of font technology as well as create a platform for the exchange of best practices, to advance the state of the art and to promote the integration of font technologies into the future of digital communication.
The event previously conceived as in-person conference in Munich is shifting online with 4 short sessions spread over 10 months, starting on the 20th November. Organized by GRANSHAN together with a lot of partners and sponsors.
Four themes, four sessions! Join us for TypeTech MeetUp online!
