We're building an alternative model: SquatConf.

SquatConf won't be your everyday conference, but we'll have good talks from amazing people. It'll be donation-based, and you'll get to contribute if you want to.

How is this possible?

Conferences costs are huge, and ticket prices are often nowhere near the true per-attendee cost, even for a non-profit conference.

If you hold a conference in a squat… the speakers advance their travel expenses… - host in squatted spaces… tell people to bring some food… and the wifi will be dodgy for sure…

You'll have a zero-cost conference made with love, but a little rougher around the edges.

We are a bunch of crazy programers that believe in anarchy and decentralised systems, conferences included.

We will provide a space, we will provide a context, some talks, and the rest will be up to you…

Who is behind this?

The inception of SquatConf was at LXJS. It was a great conference, and the organisation did an amazing job, and after the final day of the event we ended up with dominictarr, joates and I talking about autonomous self driving boats when this idea came to life. Now the idea matured and some folks (mmalecki, nathan7, no9, substack, ...) are in the loop now.

Okay, so you're a bunch of idealists, running a 10-people conference in a dump.

What you'll get out of SquatConf is in the end exactly what you want to put into SquatConf.
