Be2camp Brum

Inspired by previous Be2camp events in London and Liverpool, Be2camp Brum was held at the Fazeley Studios, Birmingham, on 12 August 2009.

The lunch time start and late finish encouraged a more social affair in collaboration with the nearest pub in the evening. The main event concluded with a Pecha Kucha session inviting speakers to abide by the quick-fire rules with an alternative presentation.
