One of the reasons we haven&#8217;t done more events in the USA is that it&#8217;s hard work to run events outside your home city, without a local network in place, and we can&#8217;t do everything in Portland, Maine. So when 2lemetry volunteered to help host <a href=\"http:\/\/thingmonk.com\/\">Thingmonk<\/a> in Colorado we thought why not go for it?<\/p>\n<p>So we&#8217;re bringing RedMonk&#8217;s unique blend of story-telling and craft experiences\u00a0to Denver, at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.drinkmilehighspirits.com\/\">Mile High Spirits and Tasting lounge<\/a>\u00a0on March 3rd and 4th. You can expect fantastic speakers, and great food and drink experiences. It&#8217;s not every IoT conference that will have a URLs for the sensors in a hog roast, for example, or a beacon-driven pub crawl, taking in some of Denver&#8217;s best pints.<\/p>\n<p>We try to bridge different communities, rather than having a constant stream of talks that represent essentially the same viewpoint.<\/p>\n<p>Speakers include<\/p>\n<p>Alexandros Marinos, founder Resin.io,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Building a SONOS Clone in 5 Minutes, a live coding demo.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Josh Dzeilak, open sorceror at Keen.io,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I Connect, Therefore I Am \u2013 A Philosophy of Things<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Kelsey Breseman,\u00a0Engineer &amp; Director of Community at Technical Machines<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Stories from a Connected World<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Josh Holmes, architect evangelist, Microsoft<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Connected Car: from devices to data to knowledge<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Doctor Sarah Cooper, VP bus dev M2Mi<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Rise of the Machines: on data and IoT comms<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Sam Phippen, founder Fun and Plausible<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The Most Dangerous Game: Giving 16-Year-Olds Power Tools<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Day One will be a hackday, where we join up all the things, and have fun playing with fantastic, easy to use Tessel devices.<\/p>\n<p>Day Two will be talks &#8211; we aim for short punchy stuff that goes META.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested in attending, you should probably ping sam@funandplausible.com (he has some awesome discount codes). If you&#8217;d like to make a corporate company purchase, please email me jgovernor at redmonk.com and i&#8217;d be happy to work something out. This event is a great learning and networking opportunity for companies interested in developer-led adoption for IoT apps, services and solutions.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the years we have been asked many times to run more events in the US.
