BarCampMiami and WordCamp kick off South Florida tech week.

The week of February 22nd can rightly be called "South Florida Tech Week," with BarCampMiami, WordCamp, FOWA, and WeMedia. Between the conferences, dinners, and parties, there'll be a lot of sharing, learning, and networking. We'll be at the Adrienne Arsht Center again!

If you haven't done so yet, please sign up here.

Please help make this event possible. BarCampMiami and WordCamp are unique events in that they are free for participants and attract those travelling from South America and from across the US, who will be here for the week's conferences. This is our chance to make friendships and share experiences and learning with our global peers.

Are you proud of what we've achieved in South Florida? This is our best opportunity to connect our community with the greater tech community at large, to put us on the map, and to attract greater interest from abroad. Please consider contributing at the reasonable Sponsor level of $300 or at the Donor level of $100. Let's make this happen!
