An unconference is a great opportunity to network, share and learn! Coffee, tea and festive-themed snacks will be provided, lunch is not included. We encourage attendees to bring their own lunch. Food can also be purchased on-site at Canopy.
There will be social drinks from 5:30pm.
What is an unconference
If you’ve attended any BoFs at DrupalCons, then you’re already familiar with the idea! An unconference is a conference where the attendees make the schedule on the day.
Everyone comes along with a topic they’d like to talk about or present about. The event starts with everyone pitching their ideas, we then add those to a board, and organically build the schedule.
The majority of proposals will likely be BoF-style discussion groups, but presentations are also welcome.
