This weekend I was fortunate enough to attent to LeanCamp London. An unconference around topics like Lean Startup, Business Model Generation and Customer Development (and actually anything you can think of).
I have been to some conferences and I haven't encountered anything like this. The format makes it an amazing engaging experience and really helps you to get deep understanding with your peers.
After walking in, you'll see an empty schedule in the room. There is no content, yet. After the room was warmed up, every attendee got a chance to pitch his session and add it to the session.
Seeing the program shape up in about 45 minutes in a collective effort, is really something you should experience. It's awesome. Interesting enough the program will balance out. So a lot of topics get covered.
I can't really think of events where you learn to draw, get familiar with other peoples kanban's layout and see Alexander Osterwalder bravely live sketch his session on stage, in one day?
LeanCamp is like having baddass entrepreneurial spirits thrown into a room for a big party. It just keeps going and when it's over you'd want to travel back in time to attend again.
In the coming days a lot of the content will be posted. I'll probably blog about some sessions I went to, but you can monitor for the release of new content at the LeanCamp Lanyrd page.
This year LeanCamp will go all around the world and I encourage you to try and attend to one. For the experience, seeking inspiration, knowledge and helping your fellow startup junkies by sharing your knowledge.
It's time. Take that pink pill. Stay in the loop through the site of LeanCamp.
