BarCamp was born in Palo Alto, California in 2005. In just three years, it has become an international network of user generated conferences — open, participatory workshop-events, whose content is provided by the attendees — often focusing on early-stage web applications, and related open source technologies, social protocols, and open data formats.
Last year's BarCamp Hong Kong topics included open source, cloud computing, iPhone development, social media, GIS, creative commons and more, drawing more than 300 participants from all walks of the Internet in Hong Kong: budding entrepreneurs, web designers, cutting edge programmers, mobile experts, game developers and designers, academics, bloggers, social media specialists, investors and media owners.
We expect as many as 500 this year, so make sure you sign up and, more importantly, make sure you show up early!
Come, speak and learn at BarCamp Hong Kong. Sign up now!
