Thanks to all those who recently attended our 7th Orange Partner Camp event.

The full post-event website including event highlights, the session presentations, plus the contest winners and more… will be available soon.

Please come back and check for updates.

interested in our next Partner Camp?
Our next Partner Camp will be held between 13 - 15 October 2008 in Clearwater, Florida.

Register your interest by emailing developers@orange.com with 'Partner Camp, Clearwater' in the subject line and we'll send you details of the event once it's available.


For 3 days, engross yourself in Camp life 24-hours a day.


Orange Partner Camp is a round-the-clock
event like no other.

As well as the plethora of sessions here's a sample
of some of the other activities that will also be taking place.

 developer play zone
 mash pit
 sponsors
 meet us activities
 food and drink
 parties

developer play zone


The Developer Centre has evolved to become the
developer play zone, where mobile and broadband technology will be demonstrated, discussed and played with.  And we'll have crew on-hand to help you.

Open for the entire event, you can use the developer play zone
to design, code, test and play with the latest devices, 24 hours a day.

If you can't wait to get started on new solutions, then this is the place to be.

    

Or simply play with the products yourself. See some great illustrations of how partners can work with us a cross mobile, fixed-line and broadband.

mash pit

Interested in widgets, mash-ups and converged applications?

You'll need to go to the mash pit - where 1-2-1 technical support and commercial inspiration for your ideas and applications will be available - open 24-hours a day.

Prizes will be awarded for the best applications and mash-ups developed, so be sure you come along and take advantage of the expertise available to you.

(If you're interested in the mash pit, you'll want to attend the Orange API interactive sessions and workshops beforehand: the Orange API and widget workshop)

sponsors

Visit the sponsor area where the main hub of activity takes place for the duration of Partner Camp.

You'll be able to speak with key representatives from device manufacturers and OS providers
face-to-face.

'…Sponsors were well represented and there was a lot of time to speak/learn from them'

meet us activities


Throughout the event we'll give you every opportunity to meet with representatives from Orange and the France Telecom Group.

You'll be able to share your ideas and present your products and services to us face-to-face, as well as gain invaluable feedback from us.

Latest update: The deadline to apply to 'meet us' at Partner Camp has now passed.  If you've applied, then great.  If not, we'll see if we can help you meet people from Orange at Partner Camp. Come to the Info point and we'll see what we can do.


As well as the organised meet us activities, the informal format of the entire event lends itself to mixing and mingling, giving you the maximum opportunities to meet with the right people, in your own time.

food and drink

Your Partner Camp fee includes all your food
and drink for the duration of the event.

As well as scheduled meal times, food and beverage stations will be provided 24-hours a day, so nourishment is on-hand if you find yourself mingling or coding late into the night!

And, if you fancy an ice cream in the middle of the opening pow-wow or during lunchtime on Tuesday, then take advantage of free ice cream, brought to you by Inside FR.

parties

The much talked-about parties will once again feature.

Welcome cocktails
As the sun sets on the first day, it's officially 'cocktail time'. Specially devised cocktails that befit the occasion and location of Partner Camp in Faro will be provided in an idyllic poolside setting… courtesy of Sony Ericsson.

Following cocktails we'll head back to the main Camp for food and more entertainment. Again, a big thanks to Sony Ericsson!

The relaxed and informal gathering on the first night will provide you with the perfect opportunity for introductions - with the Orange and France Telecom Group employees, representatives from the Sponsor companies, and your fellow attendees.

       


Fun fest
It's time to really party. The second night always goes off with a bang.

Remember the rockets in Cape Canaveral?  Those who were there will remember them well.  For those who weren't there, you missed a treat.

Once again, we're pleased to bring you the fun fest courtesy of ACCESS, and they've promised to tone things down this year (if you want them to, of course!)


So join us and ACCESS for a fun-filled night, starting with cocktails and
a fire theme.  Interesting combination?

    


Prize draws and give-aways will take place throughout the night where you can win some great goodies including the latest phones.


"The pitched battle with the foam rockets was like something out of a medieval battle field. A very good way to unwind and bond with the Orange team. Excellent!"
