BarcampCee 2008 Kijevā

Pāris dienas atpakaļ saņēmu jauku ziņu, ir sākusies reģsitrācija BlogcampCee.
Protams es varēju iztikt bez šī raksta, bet šodien saņēmu ziņu no AirBaltic, ka viņiem atkal ir 50 000 lētās biļetes nopērkamas līdz pirmdienai. Nenokavē, tev vēl ir iespēja braukt ar mums kopā.

Ja tālāk nelasīsi, tad zini, šī NeKoneference notiks no 17 līdz 19 oktobrim.

Dear barcampriga-en subscribers,

Blogcamp Central and Eastern Europe - http://blogcampcee.com - in
Kyiv, Ukraine offers new media professionals of CEE region to find new
opportunities in neighboring countries and share their experiences in
friendly barcamp atmosphere. The conference scheduled on Oct. 17-19
will also include a start-up contest with biggest European VCs on
board.

It was a year ago when a team of Ukrainian enthusiasts staged the very
first barcamp in Ukraine and in Eastern Europe. Named Blogcamp CIS and
Blaltics, it brought together 300 new media innovators from 9
countries, mostly post-Soviet ones. A year after that Ukraine, Russia,
Latvia, Caucasus and Central Asian nations are found totally infected
with barcamping virus: over a dozen barcamps in 2008 with 200 as an
average number of participants. Barcamps in the East of Europe have
built an alternative of open and creative atmosphere supporting
networking and social mobility to overregulated official conferences
on internet business.

One year later Kyiv-campers are inviting their neighbours both from
East and West, South and North to get to know each other. 500
bloggers, new media professionals and entrepreneurs will gather in
Kyiv, Ukraine on October 17-19th for Blogcamp CEE 2008 -

http://blogcampcee.com.

New media experts and practitioners from the region will have an
opportunity to hold presentations for the international audience on up
to 5 parallel agenda tracks on Saturday 18th and Sunday 19th. Public
discussions and brainstorming sessions are traditional barcamp tools
used to create an inspirational atmosphere. If you come on Friday 17th
you may also visit regional internet market orientation sessions and
get a special excursion around 1500-year-old Kyiv. Besides, you don't
want to miss three parties – one for each Blogcamp night...

Start-up contest, - http://blogcampcee.com/en/investors/contest -
being a Blogcamp special event, will be judged by European venture
grants (Seedcamp, Mangrove) as well as regional venture community
representing Ukraine, Poland, Russia, Baltics and Eastern European
Silicon Valley diaspora - http://blogcampcee.com/en/investors/jury .
Start-up teams of Central and Eastern European nations willing to
participate now have three weeks to apply for the contest until
September 28.

You don't need a visa to visit Ukraine if you are from virtually any
part of Europe, but you need to hurry in order to settle all the
travel details if you are interested in attending
Blogcamp CEE 2008. Register to participate -
