The North-West Connects Business Conference is shaping up.

From Heather James, Sligo Open Coffee Club:

The plans for that conference in November are shaping up.

At the moment there is a temporary site at http://northwestconnects.ie/ and we are using Google Groups to communicate, so if you would like to join: http://groups.google.com/group/north-west-connect/

“The organisers include Kevin Peyton, Justin Knecht from Centre for Design Innovation, and a few others (Johnny Beirne came to the last meeting). At the moment we are developing a speakers list. It’s not really a bar-camp as we are going to start by aiming at certain people to give presentations. People who are entrepreneurs and hopefully can share some insight, tell some stories, and hopefully we can all learn something. We realise taht at the moment we have a very Sligo/Letirim-centric list, but we want to get people from all over the northwest. – please join and you can see the discussions, and maybe add in your own thoughts.”
