Open Everything

Introduction: Open Everything Cape Town

As is becoming the norm, Open Everything Cape Town was a tasty cocktail of an event: insipirational talks (10 in one hour), unconferency conversations and a great dinner party all mixed up together. Things that happened:

  • What’s open? University of the Western Cape’s Philipp Schmidt and Shuttleworth Foundation’s Mark Surman did a 15 mininute schtick to set up the conversation.
  • This was folled by 30 mins of people speed-introing with each other around the questions ‘what’s open and why do we care?’.
  • There is a slidecast of the opening as well as a short blog post about it by Mark. 
  • Open Cape Town Speedgeeks.
  • The intro was followed by ten high speed presentations by local people and projects that have baked openness into their DNA.
