San Francisco, CA (Vocus/PRWEB ) June 4, 2010 -- San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom has proclaimed June 5th to be Freelance Camp PRO day, in honor of the first Freelance Camp “unconference” to be held tomorrow in the city. Due to popular demand, the organizers of Freelance Camp San Francisco 2010 have created a new sub-brand, Freelance Camp PRO, targeting professionals who have been running a freelance consulting business full time for a year or more. The event will be more focused, business topics more advanced, and participation is expected to be at a deeper level.
The morning will kick off with a brainstorm of topics. Participants with something to contribute or a topic idea generate the breakout sessions which are then scheduled throughout the day.
The after party, sponsored by MBO Partners, will further the small business networking and knowledge exchange in a casual, social setting.
Freelance Camp PRO is sponsored by MBO Partners, a financial and legal business platform that solopreneurs, consultants and freelancers can operate their small business through instead of incorporating. They are joined by co-sponsors 24 Seven, Bottom Line Law Group, Colliers International, Cosmic Design Company, Elance, Mozilla, NextSpace Coworking San Francisco, Outright, PariSoma Innovation Loft, Pennbrook I CAIB Insurance Services, Popchips, Shane & Peter, Inc. and Speck.
