http://www.boxcarmarketing.com/blog/item/barcamp-vancouver-2007-register-now/ As one of the organizers for BarCamp Vancouver 2007 I have a bit of an inside track on information. At least, I thought I did. Then I looked at the BarCamp Vancouver 2007 registry and (gulp!) we were almost halfway to capacity! That was late last week, so I registered myself and Monique. As I write this, 78 people have registered — 78 out of a maximum of 120 spots! So if you want to come to BarCamp Vancouver 2007, go to the attendees page and add your name by clicking on Edit at the top of the page. That’s our formal registration process. We may also ask for a donation of $20 at the door. C’est tout. So what is BarCamp? The standard definition: BarCamp is an ad-hoc un-conference born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction from attendees. In my experience, it’s a 24-hour, loosely organized, collaborative event with a focus on community, discovery and relationship building. We create a space that is intimate, open, casual and modest. Professionally, it is a refreshing and inspiring place to be for a few days. No one is selling you on the idea, we’re inviting you to be a participant. Because everyone is a participant to the degree they’re comfortable. If you want to present, you’ll have a chance to present. If you want to just watch, you’re welcome to do so. If you want to see interesting, creative people in action and take part yourself, you have to see it to know it. From about 6 pm on Friday, August 17 to about 6 pm on Saturday, August 18, we’re going to take over Workspace and participate in the making of culture. Sponsor BarCamp Vancouver 2007 Of the organizers, Megan Cole and I are responsible for rounding up sponsors. So would you like to be a sponsor? Sponsorships are $500 and limited space is available. Deadline for sponsorships commitments is Friday, June 22, but don’t wait because we anticipate being over-subscribed. In fact, we already have 5 companies signed up. More information is available on the BarCamp Vancouver 2007 sponsors page. If you’re interested, get in touch with me and I’ll fill you in on the details. http://www.boxcarmarketing.com/119/
