What follows Base Camp?

Published on March 6, 2023

What. A. Week. To my knowledge, no one came to Base Camp in Newport Beach just for the weather. If they did, they left disappointed. Everyone else, however, got what they came for: people coming together to solve problems. I said it a couple of weeks ago: publishing requires passion. Our campers brought that passion to every session and every conversation. It was amazing to watch and I’m honored this group came to Base Camp and engaged as much as they did.

We’ve got some notes to clean up and projects to launch coming out of the event. We’ll recap some of that on April 5 at 11:30 a.m. EST on our Base Camp recap + Edinburgh kickoff webinar!

Quick note: amongst the chaos of running an event, we posted up our March editions of What Caught our Attention and our March Event Preview.

Big announcement: May 3 Beeler.Tech will host Navigator NYC. We’d love to tell you more…and we will. For now, know that it’ll be a jam-packed day of content and networking, tackling essential topics from new angles. Like most of our stuff, it’s invite only. Request an invitation to learn more
