In 2008, over one thousand people experienced the world’s first virtual web conference. Together, we created a new type of conference that is environmentally-friendly, affordable, and interactive.

In 2009, we are going to take it one step further.


Going Solo?

My friend Stephanie Booth is organizing a one-day conference for freelancers and small business owners in the Internet industry. It's called Going Solo and it's going to take place on May 16th in Lausanne, Switzerland.

I heard Stephanie speak about her experiences in being a freelancer at the LIFT conference in Geneva and she have a very passionate presentation that left me wishing that she had organized the conference seven years ago when I decided to go freelance.

If you're thinking of attending, the early bird discount ends on March 16th.

  1. nice! I wish I could join. being new to the free-agent world it would be a great community resource. let me know if they want to start one in the state ;)


  2. I really would love to attend… why are all the cool conferences, workshops, seminars, etc all overseas??


  3. This could have been a real helper a few years back. It’s vital to get good advice from people in the know when starting out in contracting, but usually the only people available are your competitors.
