Mutual benefits

Long-term relationships are based on mutual benefits.
Here is what you do for our community, and what we do for you.

^{Lift Workshop @ Brussels with Council and Tinker.it}

^{Lift10 workshop, a discussion to prepare our next conference's format.}

The rules

Here are the rules for Lift@home:
• To organize an event you must have attended a Lift conference at least once. We want to make sure you know our values and processes before you gather the community.
• No promotion/pitching is allowed in the event's program.
• Participants must be respectful of the work that the organizer has put into running the event, and provide constructive feedback to make future events even better.
• All events should be not for profit (you can of course charge an entry fee to cover your expenses)
• Lift@home events should be shorter than one day. Beyond that, events are considered co-productions (see Lift@Austria for example) and we ask you to contact us.
• After the event the Lift@home organizer posts a short recap of the event on the Lift blog to share his experience with the Lift community.

Interested?

Here is what you need to submit your event:

• A brief description
• A location and date
• Speaker(s) and a theme
