VR Video demo & Drupal for Startups
I would like to do a 360° VR Video Demo. Try on the GearVR & Oculus Rift plus SXSW update. My startup VRVideo.co is a Drupal site and I can talk a bit about that.
Cheers

This sounds great!
Just added this to the agenda.
Is there any special equipment you'll need for your presentation?
Looking forward to presenting Crowdster
Forest - thanks for the invite - Paul and I are looking forward to the meeting. I'll talk about Event Engagement and Gamification and how the two intersect and where Drupal fits in.
Also look forward to meeting everyone there.
