BarCamp Little Rock is June 20 at UALR
Barcamp Little Rock rolls Saturday, June 20, from 10 to 4 at the UALR Reynolds College of Business.
Here's a report on last year's event from local startup champion Jordan Carlisle. (That's him at right moderating at last year's event.)
It's all free and tickets are available here.
IA is among a bevy of Arkansas startup ecosystem heavyweights sponsoring the event, which Carlisle has called a key event for central Arkansas entrepreneurship.
