BizSpark

The BizSpark program is based on Microsoft’s belief that by helping Startups succeed, we will help build a valued long-term relationship with them, and together we can build a more vibrant global software economy. BizSpark will help Startups by providing access to Microsoft software when they most need it and can least afford it, and by supporting the network of organizations – startup incubators, investors, advisors, government agencies – that are equally involved and invested in software-fueled innovation and entrepreneurship. Microsoft is committed to working with those organizations as part of the Microsoft BizSpark Network to ensure that we are supporting the broadest possible startup audience, in a way that complements the value those network organizations already provide.

Community Event: Toronto Code Camp

03 Apr

code_camp_logo The Fifth Annual Toronto Code Camp, a free .NET community sponsored event, will be held on May 1st, 2010! Last years event was a huge success with over 350 attendees, 25 sessions, 24 speakers, 20+ volunteers and contributors including Microsoft, Manulife Financial, ObjectSharp Consulting, Infragistics, GFI, FarPoint and DevTeach. This year we have moved to a new venue at Seneca College of Applied Arts and Technology. This has allowed us to offer more content to the attendees of the Code Camp. We will be offering 40 sessions (that’s 60% more) this year.

    What is a Code Camp all about?

    The answer is actually very simple. A Code Camp must follow these rules:

    1. By and For the Developer Community
      Code Camps are about the developer community at large. They are meant to be a place for developers to come and learn from their peers. Topics are always based on community interest and never determined by anyone other than the community.

    2. Always Free
      Code Camps are always free for attendees.

    3. Community Developed Material
      The success of the Code Camps is that they are based on community content. All content that is delivered is original. All presentation content must be provided completely (including code) without any restriction. If you have content you don’t want to share or provide to attendees then the Code Camp is not the place for you.

    4. No Fluff – only Code
      Code Camps are about showing the code. Refer to rule #1 if you have any questions on this.

    5. Community Ownership
      The most important element of the Code Camp is always the developer community. All are welcome to attend and speak and do so without expectation of payment or any other compensation other than their participation in the community.

    6. Never occur during work hours
      We understand that many times people can’t leave work for a day or two to attend training or even seminars. The beauty of the Code Camp is that they always occur on weekends.
