Don’t forget: DemoCamp 9 takes place on Monday, September 25th, starting at 6:30 p.m. at No Regrets restaurant and lounge (42 Mowat Avenue, near King and Dufferin).

For those who don’t know what DemoCamp is: think of it as a Toronto-and-area “show and tell” session for people working in the technology industry. Once a month, the bright lights of Toronto’s software, web development and internet industries gather together in a rather informal setting and to see what their peers are working on. Each session has five presentations, each one showing off one of their current projects. Each presenter has 15 minutes in which to make a presentation and answer questions from the audience. There’s a catch: no PowerPoint (or any other slideware) is allowed. We don’t want to see slide shows, we want to see your project in action! Real live working demos! That’s what the “Demo” in “DemoCamp” is all about!

DemoCamp is an important part of the Toronto technology ecosystem, as it lets all sorts of people — programmers, business people, creatives, academics, interested laypeople and so on — meet, get to know each other, find out what’s going on in the local software and internet industries and exchange ideas. Come, and you’ll see just how active the local high-tech scene is and maybe even get some inspiration.
