SI Camp

The applications have been assessed, the marks have been counted and now the results are in. With the unenviable task of whittling down over 70 applications, the advisory board to the camp has decided on its final 6.

Hosted by the socially active Young Foundation, supported by public sector heavy weights NESTA and the Cabinet Office’s Office of the Third Sector and hard wired by the Yahoo! Developer Network, things are well set for48 hours of mass collaboration, creativity - and fun!

Following in the unconference tradition, the Social Innovation Camp will bring together the best minds of the social media world with the best ideas of the social enterprise world in a powerful mash up of inspiration and perspiration. By the end of the camp (taking place from Friday 4th - Sunday 6th April) organisers hope to have sown the seed for the next Wikipedia or fixmystreet.com.

FutureGov will be there supporting the Enabled by Design team in their bid to develop a powerful online tool to support anyone looking to make adjustments to their lives, be it as a result of disability, injury or impairment.

So what about you. Are you interested in getting involved? The guys at Social Innovation Camp would love to hear from you, whether you’re a techie, designer or just keen to help develop the ideas.

Go on, sign up and we’ll see you there!
