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:
Douglas Campbell is the co-founder and curator for Mindshare LA. Since 2006, Mindshare LA has hosted hundreds of events that combine inspiration and interaction, creating unique in person gatherings.
