Barcamp Jacksonville!
Main Details
Barcamp Jacksonville (FL) was created to facilitate social and business networking among developers, designers, "idea guys" and to help investors and leaders meet up and find team members and create startups. Also, there will be interactive sessions, demos, and more to showcase talent and initiatives. The purpose of the Jacksonville location is to get people "excited" about technology in the North East Florida area, and to find out where web designers/developers are in Jacksonville and the First Coast. This does not mean we're not letting people outside Jacksonville come. Anyone is welcome of course.'Stay tuned.
We are putting the event here:
Jacksonville Main Library
303 N. Laura Street
Jacksonville, FL 32202
at Saturday, June 17th 2006 from 10am to 5pm.
