Haneke Design, a leading interactive design and development firm focused on delivering user-centered solutions for desktop, mobile and tablet devices, today announced that it is lending its support to Ignite Tampa Bay as a Gold Sponsor.

“We’re die-hard supporters of the entrepreneurial and creative culture of Tampa Bay, so it was a no-brainer for us to support this great community event,” said Jody Haneke, president of Haneke Design.  “Ignite Tampa Bay provides a venue for some of the region’s most interesting thinkers and doers to share ideas that can spark people to think – and in some cases, act – differently. The presentations range from merely thought provoking to mind-bendingly brilliant. We’re looking forward to a great night.”

Ignite Tampa Bay kicks off at 6:00 pm at the historic Cuban Club Theater in Ybor City. Guests will enjoy local Cigar City Beer or cocktails from the full bar on site while mingling with other guests and speakers.  Shortly before 7:00 pm, host Chris Krimitsos will deliver opening remarks and the talks will begin.  A total of 20 speakers will have 5 minutes each to present.  The evening will conclude at approximately 9:30pm.
