Spark Camp Information

Conferences and meetings are one of the defining ways that the media industry organizes itself around new ideas. We founded Spark Camp with the belief that conferences can be re-imagined as efficient, creative gatherings that further innovation and spark practical solutions to the challenges the industry faces. We believe that what happens during conferences should be continued once everyone returns home. Too often, people get together to present and talk, but then nothing results after the conference has ended. About 60 invitees attend Camp. Once confirmed, Campers soon realize that they’re each uniquely connected to everyone assembled, whether it’s through a shared hobby, or favorite book or even a past workplace. By deeply connecting our Campers not just professionally but on a number of different levels, we catalyze long-lasting relationships. Spark Camp is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. It was founded in 2011 by Amy Webb, Amanda Michel, Jenny 8. Lee, Matt Thompson and Andrew Pergam.
