As the Waterloo region prepares for the first ever FUZEnation TECH + MUSIC SUMMIT, taking place September 27-30, a new app has just been launched to help attendees navigate this groundbreaking 4 day event. The official FUZEnation app provides full event details, day-by-day highlights, and detailed background info on FUZEnation's line-up of world-renowned tech speakers and musical acts. The app allows users to share their favourite events and connect with fellow summit-goers, and enabling notifications insures attendees catch all of the actions.
