Barcamp Ho 14 is a free networking forum bringing people together for a day of discussion, demos and dialogue on Ho, Ghana and beyond. It will take place on *October 25, 2014* at the *Auditorium of the University of Health and Allied Sciences (UHAS) near the Volta Regional Hospital (Trafalgar). * The theme for this year is *"Re-Educating Ourselves for the New Entrepreneurial World". *This Barcamp hopes to assemble stakeholders to network, develop a supportive enterprising community, and partner to build together. Barcamp Ho 2014 follows 34 successful BarCamps in Ghana organized by the GhanaThink Foundation as part of its Barcamp Ghana project. This will be the fourth Barcamp in Ho and we are dedicating this year's event to the memory of Eli Yao Aidam, a Barcamp Ho pioneer. Eli was the heartbeat of GhanThink's activities in the Volta region; he used his influence in Centre for Creative Youth and other networks to the benefit of the movement in the region. We hope his selflessness will inspire a new generation of entrepreneurial civic leaders in our communities. This year's event aims to showcase how Ghana's youth can identify, utilize and develop opportunities. Specifically, the role of personal development in skills development and entrepreneurship would be explored across sectors. Through Barcamp Ho 2014, we hope to ignite fresh thinking, collaboration, and a hand-on approach to development in the Volta region and beyond. Attendees get to choose from or lead multiple user-generated breakout sessions about business, social entrepreneurship, health, education, technology and development. There will be a speed mentoring session where mentors will give insights and answers to questions from attendees. Some of the resource persons include Dr Archibald Letsa, Juliet Nugble (V.P FM), Prince Kotoku (IT Specialist), Frederick Duodo Takyi (Daily Guide), Bismark Tay (Leadership Coach), King Norbet Akpabli (Citi FM), Solomon Adade (Dietician), Dzidudu Darkey-Mensah (Playwright), Leonard Lumor (Presenter / Actor), Makafui Nyamadi (GCOM) etc. Register/RSVP at the Barcamp Ho Eventbrite website (barcampho14.eventbrite.com) or text *"Barcamp Ho + [name] + [email address]" to 1945* through any mobile network.
