Time to run your Lift

Lift@home is one of the most incredible journey we have engaged in, an almost total loss of control where we encourage our community to organize events in their own living room around an as simple as possible set of guidelines. A timeless idea (examples that come to mind are scouting, tupperware, Barcamp or TEDx) and good people resulted in fifteen events organized around the world, in cities like London, Seoul, San Francisco, Barcelona, Lausanne, Geneva, Toronto and more.

The Christmas break is coming, and the agenda gets clearer as several events are in the works (Berlin, Maastricht, New York) but not yet announced. I have already said it on the Lift blog, but I also want to encourage the readers of this column to propose events. We want to see your crazy ideas in action, the formats you wish we would use at our big conferences. We want to hear the people that inspire you, those entrepreneurs, researchers and creators only you know. We want our people to get together to brainstorm and share between the Geneva, Marseille and Korean conference.

Lift@home makes it easy to run an event: you get a website to publish your programme and manage registrations, a poster you can customize and print, easy mailing to your participants, and the attention of a growing community of pioneers.

Take your chance, in five minutes you can know the thrill of running your very own conference, and gather the brightest minds around you!
