The first ever Barcamp in Buffalo is at Pearl Street Grill on Tuesday March 3rd at 7:30pm. The idea is to create ongoing events for people involved in new technology and web related development to connect and learn from one another.

 

What is Buffalo BarCamp?  

  • A group designed to connect the disparate elements of the Buffalo technology and design communities
  • A meet up of people interested in technology, design and web development
  • A place to share what you are working on get input, insights and opinion from others
  • Learn about cool shit that others in the technology, design and web development communities are doing 

 

What should I expect?

  • Short presentations from people who want to share their cool shit
  • Open participation for all.  Attendees are encouraged to talk, listen, share and get involved.  Someone have a cool idea or business plan that you want in on?  Well, share a beer and make a connection.  Someone making something cool and you want to know how they did it?  Ask some questions.  You get the idea.
  • A casual atmosphere, no suits!
  • Enjoy some drinks and have fun
