Amazing Speakers You Won&#8217;t Find Anywhere Else<\/h2>\n<p>We received a ton of speaker applications this year and were able to choose some truly great speakers &#8211; with an emphasis on finding amazing talks that are not already on WordCamp.tv. \u00a0Whether you&#8217;re interested in learning more about design, development, business, or growth, we have an expert lined up to talk about it.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Interactive Sessions Where You Get YOUR Questions Answered<\/h2>\n<p>WordCamp Denver is more than just a conference where you shuffle from room to room listing to talks the organizers found interesting. \u00a0Yes, we have amazing talks that we&#8217;re sure you&#8217;ll love, but we also have a number of Town Halls planned on <a href=\"https:\/\/2016.denver.wordcamp.org\/session\/ecommerce-town-hall\/\">eCommerce<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/2016.denver.wordcamp.org\/session\/growth-marketing-town-hall\/\">Growth\/Marketing<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/2016.denver.wordcamp.org\/session\/business-town-hall\/\">Business<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/2016.denver.wordcamp.org\/session\/development-town-hall\/\">Development<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/2016.denver.wordcamp.org\/session\/community-organizing-town-hall\/\">Community Organizing<\/a>. \u00a0The sixth town hall will take the form of a design critique modeled after the immensely successful &#8220;CritiquePress&#8221; we hosted last year in which attendees can get their websites critiqued in real-time. \u00a0The Town Hall format lets you ask the speakers a number of questions on a specific topic. \u00a0Is there something you need to know that will help your website or business succeed? \u00a0At WordCamp Denver, you can sit face-to-face with experts in a variety of areas and get answers to your questions.<\/p>\n<h2>3. You&#8217;re Invited to the Hallway Track<\/h2>\n<p>Everyone has heard about the unofficial third (or fourth or fifth) track at WordCamp &#8211; the hallway track where you can meet and connect with other attendees and speakers &#8211; but not everyone knows how to find it. \u00a0Sunday morning, join us for a Social Sidebar before the morning&#8217;s sessions start. \u00a0It&#8217;s like the hallway track to the max. \u00a0We\u2019ll have some breakfast foods to nosh on, and selected speakers be manning designated Discussion Hubs for those who want to talk design, development, growth \/ marketing, business, or meetups. We\u2019ll also have a business-free zone for those who would rather talk about scary clowns or cat videos.<\/p>\n<h2>4.
