IgniteOKC - Leadership Committee Meeting
Want to be a part of something cool in Oklahoma City? Well - come help us prepare for IgniteOKC. We will provide some snacks and drinks - you provide your brain and creativity. What is Ignite, you ask? 
Ignite is a community intellect exchange - it is an open forum to share your knowledge, learn what others think is cool and socialize. Ignite captures the best of geek culture in a series of five-minute speedy presentations on topics ranging from "The Best Way to Buy a Car" to "Hacking Chocolate." Imagine that you're on stage in front of an audience of hundreds of people, doing a five-minute presentation using a slide deck that auto-forwards every 15 seconds, whether you're ready or not. What would you do? What would you say? Could you stand the pressure? Wanna find out more? Click here to find out how some of the smartest minds on the planet dealt with the Ignite five-minute presentation format as Brady Forrest, co-creator of Ignite, highlights a different talk from Ignites all around the world. Some of our favorite presentations...
- Great Designers Steal by Jeff Veen from Ignite San Francisco
- How to Work a Crowd by Alexis Bauer from Ignite Sebastopol (California)
A must watch for any potential presenter...
- How and Why to Give and Ignite Talk by Scott Berkun from Ignite Seattle
Wanna get involved? There are many jobs that need doing to produce an Ignite. One person can do them all (thought it's a lot of work), but it's easier, and more fun, if more people are involved. Dunlap Codding will be hosting a happy hour to organize a leadership committee of people to execute the inaugural event and grow Ignite OKC into a signature metro event. We thought you would be an excellent asset to the team. Know anyone else who would would like to be a part of the Ignite OKC leadership committee? Please feel free to bring them along. Here are some of the jobs that need to be done:
- Marketing/Promotion/Sponsorship/PR coordinators
- Venue liason
- Ignite talk coordinator
- Ignite talk MC
- Ignite Contest coordinator
- Ignite Contest MC
- Videographer
- Onsite Help -- set up, hand out badges and drink tickets, clean up
When and Where Please join us Wednesday September 23rd from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Iguana Mexican Grill (Google map) to kick off this exciting initiative for Oklahoma City. Please RSVP to Emily Campbell by e-mail ecampbell@dunlapcodding.com or by phone (405) 607-8600. Hope to see you there! If you want to see a live local Ignite event in person... We got scooped! The folks up in Tulsa got out of the gate first - but we don't mind. We needed to have a little cross-state rivalry to get things cooking. Come join us at IgniteTulsa on September 17 at the Blue Dome Diner. Don't wait to make your reservation to attend - space is filling up!

Sure we may have had our event first, but one of the best talks was by OKC's Emily Campbell. Besides, it isn't a competition... let us know how we can help!
