DemoCamp Victoria a Hit

The first DemoCamp Victoria was held on Thursday night. It was a wonderful event, filled with excellent presentations and great people. Attendance was much higher than expected. Over 60 people crammed in to see presentations from such companies as Songbird, Fortuno, and Flock to name a few. Combine that with an upbeat atmosphere and lovely food & drink, and it made for an unforgettable first event.

As the night dwindled down, buzz and interest were evident. As a result, planning of a second event is already underway. Undoubtedly, a larger venue may be needed, as even greater attendance is expected at the next event.

I look forward to hearing about new companies and meeting new people at Victoria's second DemoCamp :)
