“This is a camp with very low barriers,” says co-organizer Edward Lenssen. “We hear from participants that this camp is relaxed, also attracting people who are not so familiar with  TYPO3.”

International campers
---------------------

[The TYPO3camp in Venlo](http://typo3campvenlo.nl "TYPO3camp Venlo's website") is very international, and participants come from as far away as Romania and France, Belgium and Switzerland. “We expect to see a lot of attendants from Germany”, says Edward. Venlo is situated on the Dutch border to Germany, not far from [the Ruhr district of North Rhine-Westphalia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruhr "More about Ruhr on Wikipedia"), one of the largest urban areas in Europe. “For this event we have also changed location to Domani, a church that is now mostly used for cultural events.”

The camp runs over three days, kicking off with a Pre-party at [Café Central](http://www.cafecentral.nl/ "Café Central's website"). The second day will be a conference and the last day an unconference, barcamp style.

Quality speakers
----------------

“We have more quality and more diverse speakers than ever before,” says Edward, a co-owner of the Venlo-based TYPO3 agency [Beech.it](https://www.beech.it).

The speakers include CEO of [TYPO3, Inc.](http://typo3.com "TYPO3, Inc.'s website"), Mathias Schreiber, Sven Wolferman on responsive web design, Björn Jacob on the new form engine, Morton Jonuschat, Petra en Joey Hasenau, Patrick Broens, Richard Haeser and Joost de Valk talking about Yoast for TYPO3, and Daniel Zielinski about localisation TYPO3 projects.

Speakers like Robert Douglass, Michelangelo van Dam, Lucas van Lierop and Gijs Roeffen will talk about general Internet related topics, such as Docker, the PHP roadmap and security.
