We had an unbelievable 31 submissions across a wide range of topics for our second Ignite Phoenix event! Deciding the final lineup was an oh-so difficult task that our diverse group of technical, entrepreneurial, and artistic megalomaniacal judges argued and fought over. Ultimately, we ending up with what we thought was a great cross-section of topics for all to enjoy.
Admittedly, there were a lot of presentations that each judge wishes made the cut, which just goes to show you the quality of submissions that we received; you can see the entire list of submissions by clicking here. The Ignite Phoenix crew would like to extend a huge “Thank You” to all those who submitted an idea for a presentation and stepped up to support the community that Ignite Phoenix is trying to bring together!
Ignite Phoenix Part 2 will take place on Wednesday October the 29th at the Jobing.com Phoenix offices; please RSVP at Upcoming if you haven’t done so already! Also, we will be doing a special three presentation “mini-Ignite” in conjunction with PodcampAZ which is being hosted at the University of Advancing Technology (UAT) on Nov 1st and 2nd.
We hope you’re as excited as we are for Ignite Phoenix Part 2, and please take a moment to check out the final lineup below!
Sincerely,
~Tomas “Electric Boogaloo” Carrillo and the Ignite Phoenix Crew

There’s a typo in the last one though. I think it’s meant to say “fucked” rather than the errant asterisk
