How did this get started?

Social Media Camp Victoria started when Chris Burdge andĀ Paul Holmes decidedĀ that Vancouver Island deserved to have a top notch event where people with an enthusiasm for social media could both learn to leverage it effectively as well as talk about its effect on mainstream media, business and society as a whole.

After a hugely successful 2011 event, it has evolved into the premier social media event in Western Canada.
