Startup Camp
"An unconference-style event that's dedicated to bringing together the various members of the startup community for a face-to-face collaborative meetup where its the attendees that drive the agenda.
We are inviting you all to share your insights on November 2nd and 3rd at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View California at Startup Camp. Startup Camp is an unconference that makes use of the Open Space methodology—an approach to events that takes the best parts of regular conferences like the coffee breaks, after-hours events, and the 5 minutes of Q&A after those long sleepy presentations—and turns them into the event itself. Unconferences create an intimate atmosphere where all who attend are encourged to both contribue and learn. At Startup Camp, it doesn’t matter whether you are thinking of starting up, are in the throes fo starting up, or started up a long time ago and now have hit a stride; all are welcome to share what they know or need to know with other startup concerns, and some that have successfully launched profitable businesses. The idea is for everyone to get something special out of it. And, just as importantly, to make new friends.”
