Ignite London was Great – Here’s What You Had to Say

We’ve used Tweet Doc to download all the Tweets from Ignite tagged to #igniteLDN. If you want to download the document in PDF format, click here.

Thanks to everyone who came out last night, to our speakers, our sponsors and Ginglik. We’ll be posting images from the event and videos of the talks over the next week or so. It was a great night! You’ve all made me smile

Ignite London is Tonight!

It feels like we’ve been planning it for months (well, I guess we have) and it’s nice to know that the day is finally here. Ignite London is happening tonight at Ginglik. Doors open at 7 pm and talks will begin sometime between 7:45 and 8 pm. Admission is free.

A last word of thanks to our sponsors: presenting sponsor Box UK, venue sponsor Ginglik (especially Colin for all his help) and non-monetary promotional sponsors the BBC and O’Reilly. Most important, thanks to all of tonight’s speakers who have donated their time, energy and creativity to creating an interesting and eclectic range of talks.

Both Dan and I have really enjoyed putting together this event. If you are at Ignite tonight, please come up and say hello. For more on Dan, visit his Twitter or his website. You can also find me (Amy) on Twitter or on my blog. We also both write for The Januarist.

Hope to see many of you tonight!

Ignite London – this Wednesday!

Hi everyone! Just a quick reminder that Ignite London is this Wednesday, November 18th at Ginglik. Doors open at 7 pm, talks start between 7:45 and 8 pm. Ginglik does serve food and, of course, the bar will be open all night.

If you received a voucher, your admission is guaranteed up until 7:15 pm. If you didn’t receive one, please do come along anyhow. We still expect you will be able to get in at the door if you arrive early but of course, we can’t guarantee anything.

We would love it if you would remind everyone that Ignite London is happening this week and also to continue to post about the event through your social networking channels throughout the night of the 18th. Please use the hash tag #igniteLDN so that we can follow what everyone is saying.

Thanks for all your support and we’re looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday. In the meantime, if you have any questions or concerns, please leave a comment or email amyATboxukDOTcom.

Ignite Voucher Holders – Please Send Me Your Email Address

Hello! I’ve sent out Ignite London vouchers by email to everyone who requested them AND who has sent me their email address. A good number of the people who requested a voucher on the blog have not yet sent me their coordinates.

In case we are having a technical issue, and you have emailed me and it’s gone into my spam please try emailing your details to the following: amy[AT]boxuk[DOT]com and amy.thibodeau[AT]gmail[DOT]com.

The vouchers are all spoken for and I’ve had additional requests. If you would still like a voucher, please email me ASAP. If I don’t hear from you within the next 24 hours, I will assume something has come up and you can’t use your voucher and I may give it to someone else.

Specifically, from the people who commented on the website, I am waiting to hear from: @Mathieu, @Simon, @Brianjd. @Roberta, @LorenzGerber, @JamesFlewellen, @Alire, @Martinwalton, @Adrianaata, @CharleyMassey, @Chalres, @RichardKeen, @SimonFoster, @JimmyTidey, @Rowan, @AliceBartlett.

As always, comments welcome below.

Thanks!

All 50 Vouchers Gone

Thanks so much for the great response to the vouchers – we’ve given away all 50.

If you didn’t get a voucher, this does not mean you can’t attend Ignite London! The capacity of our venue is about 180 people – we’ve only given out 50 vouchers (good for two people each) so that still leaves room for people who show up at the door.

Whether you have a voucher or show up on the night, admission is still free. We are really looking forward to see you all there!
