Presenting… FloatCamp

floatcamp-logo-125hThe folks behind Will This Float? have another awesome event ready to take off.  FloatCamp ’09 will be held March 28, 2009 at the ETSU Innovation Lab.  

What is a FloatCamp?

Ever hear of a BarCamp?  We have taken the BarCamp concept as a base to create the next Will This Float? event.  We have a few pre-planned sessions during the day which will be of interest to entrepreneurs and the community in general.  And at the end of the day there will be an impromptu pitch competition somewhat similar to the November 2008 event.  However, the rest of the time is BarCamp time.  There are 11 open slots (45 minutes) each for you to present a session on something you are the expert on.

I Want To Lead A Session

Awesome!  Head over to the Proposed Sessions page at www.floatcamp.org and click the Edit Page button (you must have a Google Account to be able to edit pages).  Add some details to that page about what you’d like to present and be ready on March 28th.

Now here is where it gets interesting.  The morning of the event, everyone interested in presenting will have a chance to stand up and describe quickly what it is they want to talk about.  Attendees will then get to vote on what they’d like to see and the schedule will be set. 

I’d Love To See Someone Present About [enter neat topic here]

Help give others the motivation to come out and lead a session.  Please add any topics you’d like to learn more about to the Session Wishlist page over at www.floatcamp.org.  Hopefully someone will come along and take the challenge.
