BarCamps were developed in Silicon Valley as an alternative to conferences with predefined agendas that have no place for unexpected ideas. Here, the whole process is open, from organisation through to attendance and content. Participants are encouraged to suggest sessions throughout the event, and new, ad-hoc meetings may occur as a result of conversations. Everyone is also encouraged to share their thoughts and findings afterwards, whether through blogging, photo uploads or other electronic media.

BarCamp Transparency is being held to discuss open government, social media ethics and cyber activism. Increasingly, these are becoming high priority news items, and we expect this event to attract media attention.

As a sponsor of BarCamp Transparency, you will associate your brand with a landmark event discussing some of the most important topics of the digital age. You will have the opportunity to engage with some of the country's best thinkers in technology, government, ethics and activism. Space will be reserved for attendees from your organisation, and we will provide room for prominent signage. We will also highlight your sponsorship in printed materials, on our official website, in blog and Twitter posts, and in announcements on the day.

We're very interested in discussing other ways in which you can engage with participants and coverage of the event. To learn more or to get involved, email us at bct09@dushka.co.uk .
