There's an event here in Los Angeles called Mindshare. It brings together an eclectic group of speakers which includes scientists, artists and philanthropists.

It was co-founded by Douglas Campbell, who led an eclectic life himself, which included a trip around the world in a tuxedo. Mindshare was partially insprired by the TED Conference, an event that's notirously tough to get into. Douglas found his way into the conference a few years ago by volunteering. He gave away gift bags, which helped him get to know the conference's attendees.

I met Douglas at a past Mixergy event and asked to interview him so I could learn how he puts together Mindshare. Here's our recorded interview:

  • Thanks Victor ;)

  • Andrew,

    Thanks so much for the write up and interview - it was a lot of fun and a good exercise in trying to define exactly what Mindshare represents and also what we intend for the future.

    It's a very exciting project and I hope to see some of you here soon!

    - Doug
