[5/15/2013: Updated with some of sessions that took place listed below, but we can’t make out them all from the above photo]
One of the biggest changes to the 5th annual BCNI will be some pre-planned sessions to kick things off, so we wanted to highlight some of those sessions with an overall look at the tightened schedule.
We’re also welcoming our friends from the Philly Content Strategy group to bring new faces with a cohosted event: “Content Camp is an unconference that brings together the artistic, strategic, entrepreneurial, and tech communities to exchange ideas and collaborate on the future of content creation, consumption, and compensation.”
Oh, and there will be a news hackathon taking place too!
Of the five rooms, two will have a broader Content Camp focus and three will look more narrowly at news.
