SwiftKey Innovation, The Hub, Westminster, London - 21st February 2014

SwiftKey holds another of its two-day innovation sessions in The Hub - a venue on the first floor of the New Zealand High Commission just off Trafalgar Square in Westminster. Nosher's on a none-too-succsessful electronics tip, but it's still fun to get the soldering iron out for a change. There's also a mission to head off to Maplin's up The Strand in order to get some components.
