The story of CROWD and The Fight Club
CROWD Is In Da House!
CROWD (Croatian Web Developers Association) is
a non-profit NGO established with a purpose of promoting and
advancing the role of web developers and other professions and
professionals associated with the Internet, development of web, web
applications and web services, along with web design, online
promotion, marketing, social media, hosting, consulting and other
web related services. CROWD also promotes
information technologies, information society, broadband internet
and principles of
e-inclusion, e-democracy and e-government.
CROWD Takes You To The Fight Club!
The Fight Club is a new project that promotes
the web culture, new media and technologies. This unique event
presents a clash of ideas, products and technologies that are
represented by Fighters divided into two (or more)
teams. However The Fight Club is so much more
- it is a point of meeting, socializing and having fun!
IDEA That Rocks The Fight Club!
The Fight Club idea was set in motion by Lili
Rodić, CROWD's president, with a clear wish to
organize free entry events that introduce modern technologies and
media to a broader public.
The Fight Club is a recurring event with
educational and fun features, that bring together new technologies
professionals and enthusiasts, as well as lurkers who want to learn
new things in a simple and friendly way.
The Fight Club focuses on education, but it is
also about socializing and networking, sharing connections and
meeting new business partners.
The Fight Club Project
The Fight Club features two teams of
experts/enthusiasts in a particular topic of The Fight
Club and the Moderator (a public figure,
still undecided about the particular topic), and they all engage in
a verbal duel that is The Fight Club. The
Fight Club lasts for 1,5 to 2 hours, depending on the
topic and the discussion dynamics.
The Fight Club teams include two to four
Fighters, who are either or both technology
experts, evangelists, public figures and average users.
Fighters are expected to present their knowledge,
experiences and opinions in an interesting and entertaining manner
and to engage the audience in participating in The Fight
Club.
The Fight Club aims to show the
Audience both positive and negative sides of
technologies or ideas and to give them an opportunity to try out
new technologies or products in question.
The Audience is divided into three parts: two
parts have already decided prior to coming where they stand and one
part that has not made up their mind yet. At the end of
The Fight Club the number of those that have
chosen or changed sides is noted. The Audience has
a chance to participate, cheer, throw stress balls, use megaphone
to articulate opinions and get engaged in any other form of
participation under the supervision of the
Moderator.
The Fight Club is all about top-notch Fighters,
on a specific topic, giving a real show (set design,
lights, sound) and so much more!
