My first BarCamp on social media back in December 2010 was really great and I'm also quite interested in India. How fortunate then that the blokes from Indische Wirtschaft - Stefan Mey and Wolfgang Bergthaler - organised an IndiaCamp in Vienna on Sat.30 April 2011.

Although one day is definitely much too short to cover all the diverse aspects of this huge country, we actually did quite well: econmic and business aspects, culture and intercultural issues, fotos, education, dance, cricket and of course Bollywood to name but a few sessions.The whole thing was spiced up by a lovely Southindian lunch and hot chai in the afternoon.

The people were almost as diverse as the topic of this BarCamp and came from all different paths of life: Austrians, Indians, Germans, Danes, ... journalists, students, entrepreneurs ...

The venue, by the way, couldn't have been better: namely the Hub Vienna - a spacious, airy loft with a friendly and inspiring atmosphere.

Starting from about 9.30 am the official programme ended some time around 7 pm but the inofficial chatting and networking went on till the early hours of the next day.

So I'm already looking forward to the next IndiaCamp which will hopefully last 2 days or even longer ...
