GET IN TOUCH
Ruud van der Linden, the friend whose 2022 trip to Uruguay inspired the Summer Camp

Our inspo!

In 2022, our friend Ruud van der Linden surprised us! He packed his bags and traveled to Uruguay to work and connect with us.

Why? Because remote work is lonely and he saw an opportunity to generate new relationships, share experiences and, not least, escape from the cold (bye, winter! Hello, Uruguayan summer!)

This trip inspired us to spread this energy in our community!

That’s why we envisioned the Summer Camp: cultural exchange, an event created by and for video devs that invites us to meet face to face in Montevideo, Uruguay, to continue nurturing and developing this great community.

CHECK OUT OUR LAST SUMMER!

Summer Testimonials

"The motto for the event was 'Connect through the power of collaboration', and I think it captures perfectly the essence of the whole experience.

We started working together on an ambitious project, got to know each other in person and made friends sharing a mate.

We believe that open source projects greatly benefit from a close-knit, friendly community.

Events like this are what create and cement these communities, and we're very proud to have been part of this from the start."

"The experience at the Summer Camp was inspiring and enriching.

I worked on Open Source projects and was part of an active community.

Starting a project from scratch and living different experiences at Qualabs was amazing.

The hospitality was impeccable and exceeded my expectations. I totally recommend the Summer Camp to network and grow professionally without losing sight of community development and video."
