innovation festival why volunteer
DESCRIPTION
A global festival of crowd-sourced events for the innovation, strategy & entrepreneurship community.TRANSCRIPT
Why become a Volunteer?Interested in innovation? Interested in meeting like-minded peers? Shortage of time? Then look no further – as a volunteer you will not be directly responsible for hosting events, but instead the Innovation Festival team can help place you with one of the many events happening in multiple cities across the world.
Why become a Volunteer?We rely upon volunteers to make the Innovation Festival a reality. Volunteers help us from tweeting, to checking in attendees to helping with Q&A at events. Have a particular city in mind? Or a particular event? Let us know and we will do our best to connect you with the organiser! Volunteering is an ideal way to get a deeper sense of experience from the many events taking place during Innovation Festival – meet and greet the attendees, have coffee with industry leaders and gain behind the scene access
