Back to blogging after organizing & participating in a very successful & exhausting CairoCodeCamp’10 conference. We had the perception that CairoCodeCamp is just a regular Code Camp. It’s a big community event organized by dotnetwork.org user group , the first & biggest offline user group in Egypt.
CairoCodeCamp is the biggest conference dotnetwork is organizing throughout the whole year.
CairoCodeCamp hits multiple birds actually with one stones. It:
- 1. Provides a chance for a large amount of students, professional developers, business owners & software entrepreneurs to meet and socialize, facilitating TONS of opportunities for all participants to help them evolve even more.
- 2. Allows exponentially increasing number of speakers to be in the same place presenting very useful sessions on all of the software’s technical & business aspects, maximizing the learning value for all participants.
- 3. Invites high profile world-class grade speakers to speak at CairoCodeCamp. That gives Egypt a necessary exposure for the global software community and helping us marketing Egypt as a critical Landmark of technology in the Middle East.
CairoCodeCamp’09 was the first big conference we organize. It had 18 sessions presented by 5 domestic speakers & 4 international speakers.
CairoCodeCamp’10 was way bigger. We had more exposure. It had 40 sessions presented by 20 domestic speakers & 7 international speakers.
We have had the best sponsors ever! They have been very helpful in such bad global economy status. For them we are very thankful for helping making this dream come true!
So, we’re talking through the path , but are we there yet ? Not yet! We want more recognition & more people to learn & benefit their society and the world!
We have already started working on CairoCodeCamp’11. Please feel free to contact us through www.CairoCodeCamp.com , if you have any feedbacks, notes, ideas or want to help!
Thank you dotnetwork team, Speakers, all of our sponsors & Big Buddy Society for working as a team, making this event happen!
