Hey all, it’s been quiet for a while, but we have some exciting news to share!

We’ve been running Ignite events in Berlin for about 6 years to date, and enjoyed the opportunity to meet all of you tremendously.

Every now and then, it’s time to try something new: In addition to our regular Ignite Berlin series, we’re planning a special with Mozilla’s developer conference ViewSource on September 12th.

What’s a Special and what’s the Regular you ask?

Ignite Berlin Series

• Curated by the current Ignite Berlin team.
• We welcome sponsorship: for drinks, location or anything else.

This follows the current format of Ignite Berlin: a free-to-attend, completely volunteer-powered Ignite talks event. Because we like numbers we’ll continue calling it Ignite Berlin #6, #7, #8 and so forth.

Ignite Berlin Specials 

• Curated by Ignite Berlin team.
• Co-branded with a larger conference: Ignite @ AwesomeConference.
• Co-organised: venue and other equipment from the conference organisers.

This new format will be in collaboration with a larger conference: either as part of the core program, or a night-before socialising event. We are open to new forms of event hosting and collaborations; happy to chat about it!

There might be a nominal fee for attending, which includes entry to the program, and drinks or snacks voucher. Depending on the conference partner, Ignite Berlin Specials could be free for conference ticket holders.

This is an experiment for us, and one we’re very much looking forward to as it helps us grow the Ignite community even more.
