As I announced, the cancellation of Going Solo Leeds does not mean that we will be idle on September 12th. The first SoloCamp, a barcamp focused on freelancing issues, will take place at the date and location announced for Going Solo Leeds: Old Broadcasting House, September 12th.
Get your ticket and put your name on the wiki. Then tell your freelancing friends to come too! The event is free and open to all, in pure unconference style.
The programme of the day will depend on the number of people present and what they want out of the day. If we’re five or fifty, we won’t be looking at the same kind of event — it can go from animated discussion around a table during half a day to a whole day packed with presentations and workshops. For obvious reasons, we won’t be reproducing the Going Solo programme, though some speakers will be present and we will be taking inspiration from it. You make the programme!
So far, Suw Charman-Anderson, Stowe Boyd, Philip Oakley and myself have confirmed participation. Imran Ali will drop in during the morning. We’re just waiting for you! Come and join us at SoloCamp Leeds on September 12th.
