UnSummit is an alternative, “unconference,” not unlike a BarCamp. That means full participation, full dissemination and free admission — all the things that traditional conferences are not.

Unsummit was conceived by Don Ball of Polymer Studios in October 2008 as an alternative to the sold-out 2009 MIMA Summit and held on the same day. UnSummit quickly grew into a stand-alone event with UnSummit2 in March 2009. UnSummits are now planned to occur twice a year with the next one scheduled for October 10, 2009.

In the past we’ve talked about building strategy and working through tough times. Unsummit 3 will look at what’s next and how to take what we all do to the next level.
