WIMPcamp is coming Saturday, August 16th! WIMPcamp is our annual unconference first started in 2012.
This year we’re shaking things up and running it as a hybrid un/conference.
What’s a hybrid un/conference? WIMPcamp 2014 will feature a mix of sessions selected from proposers (you!) ahead of time, and sessions given by attendees that are scheduled the day of the event.
Proposals are due by July 19th at midnight, after which we’ll review submissions and select as many as will fit in the schedule. We’ll be announcing the schedule on August 2nd.
If you are new to presenting, The Goodman Center has some quality resources. If you’re looking for a book, slide:ology and Presentation Patterns are fantastic resources.
Not sure what to present? There are a wealth of topics that are interesting to WIMP - technologies (tools, languages, etc), techniques, business development, freelance operations, etc. You can’t go wrong!
Sessions are 40-minutes long, but that doesn’t necessarily mean 40 minutes of presentation - you can do a lot of different formats. Give the submission form below a quick look to see what your options are.
Call for Proposals is now closed!
Thanks everyone for your amazing proposals! While we can reveal what has been submitted yet, as we are still looking through everything, we’ll be announcing them on August 2nd on the WIMPcamp website! Stay tuned for more info!
