After hosting three great idea camps in 2009 (including #icdc & #icpnw) – Charles Lee @charlestlee is planning a new conference event geared specifically towards non-profits and those interested in humanitarian relief.
The initial !deation conference will be held April 5-6 in Long Beach, CA.
The !deation Conference is intentionally formatted to create a rich learning and sharing experience. Each element of the conference facilitates a different mode for engaging the content as well as fellow participants. The hope is that these various experiences will lead to inspiration, encouragement, new explorations, refinement, collaboration, and strategic implementation.
I chatted with Charles a week or so ago for the podcast and he shared some of his vision for !deation.
The conference will be a bit more structured than Idea Camp with key note addresses from folks like Scott Harrison, Eugene Cho, Wade Kawasaki and others.
There will also be smaller workshops to help folks connect with others in their given field.
Should be excellent!
The registration will be capped at 400 attendees – and the early bird special only lasts till Friday – Jan. 15th – so register now!
It’ll be a couple weeks till we publish the full Charles Lee interview on the podcast – but you can hear a snippet of it (dealing with !deation) here:
