Upcoming: DemoCampMontreal1, Tuesday 27th Feb

By Heri Feb 26th 2007 in Events

DemoCampMontreal1 is tomorrow’s meetup where a handful of Montreal tech guys and girls will get to demo a new technology or application.

The first DemoCamp was started in Toronto, as an alternative to FooCamp, the O’Reilly event where entrepreneurs and key Silicon Valley innovators get to hang out together and talk about their technologies. And you had to be the founder or the technologist from Google, Yahoo, digg, flickr … to be invited there. In contrast, DemoCamps are more local, free, casual, and lasts 1 day instead of being a multi-day event.

You can get the schedule here. About 40 people are expected. DemoCampMontreal1 will be starting at 6.30 pm and is located at Société des Arts Technologiques, 1195 bvd St-Laurent.

The alternative to FooCamp is BarCamp. DemoCamp is a a kind of subset of BarCamp – easier to set up, with shorter presentations.
