the inspiring TakeOff2009
Last April 25, I went to Coimbra to attend another conference. This time about innovation and entrepreneurship.
Organized by Alcides Fonseca, TakeOff is more likely to be a (web) business oriented conference more than BarCamp is, which in fact is a tech, geeky oriented event as you can expect for something organized by Tiago Pinto from webreackstuff.
Well back onto my notes about TakeOff itself… and my simple notes just to tell I am alive 
Organization:
The thing I like more is the simplicity on which it is built. It has a very simple start, a solid context about what to talk. Well planed agenda with tight intervals and a too much simple end.
Talks:
Shoul I say I loved 4/5 of them, which is great I think!
I’m wating for review these talks in particular, “Jorge Figueira, Carlos Andrade and Leo Xavier”.
Persons and environment:
New faces and well known faces too, as in friends I should say. Lot’s of them in fact. And yep this is nice but great events like these need to reach a wider audience. The advantages of this are tremendous. New people, new ideas, new problems and new possible solutions. IMHO share is the key.
I’m waiting to see this initiatives all over Portugal, in other Cities.
