BarCamp is a worldwide participatory conference where attendees discuss topics of their choice in an informal and unstructured environment. There are no scheduled speakers or presentations, instead participants have conversations in the hallways and work together to share knowledge on a variety of subjects. The goal is to replicate natural discussions and networking opportunities where everyone contributes rather than spectates.
