After decades of misunderstanding our users, we programmers now have better tools.
Collaborative Modeling makes it easy to build the software our users really need.
(And not the software we only thought they would need.)
Some Collaborative Modeling methods and mashups are …
However, our goal is not to pitch specific tools, but to explore their use cases and their relationships. We want to investigate the values behind the tools we love. Why does this new era of Collaborative Modeling feel so different from what many of us associated with ‘modeling’ in a distant past?
The Collaborative Modeling Camp (ComoCamp) is an unconference inspired by Agile Methods, Domain-Driven Design and Behavior Driven Development. We reach out to bring practitioners of collaborative modeling methods together with creators and thought leaders. We also invite everybody interested to be part of this event. Experience collaboration, discuss and share your knowledge! Our camp is not-for-profit, hands-on, community-organized, and meant to be a lot of fun.
The ComoCamp unconference is organized as a large open space. Join us in creating an engaging and dynamic experience where your voice truly matters! We believe that the heart of any open space event lies in the diverse perspectives and knowledge of its participants. That’s why we encourage everyone to bring their own topics to the table. Whether it’s a burning question, a fascinating idea, or a pressing issue, your input is invaluable in shaping the discussions and fostering meaningful interactions. By contributing your own topics, you help ensure that our open space is a reflection of the collective wisdom and interests of our community. So, come prepared to share, explore, and inspire as we come together to exchange ideas, learn from one another, and co-create a memorable experience.
The Europahaus Vienna provides a comfortable atmosphere for relaxed collaboration as well as concentrated work.
We have direct access to the spacious park area and if the weather conditions allow for it, sessions can take place outside, too! 😊
Some of our most experienced community members will introduce you to three different Collaborative Modeling (Como) methods in a single day.
After an intensive intro day, you are invited to have dinner in the bistro. Maybe you already meet the first people arriving for the open space only? Yes, they are invited, too! :)
The first day of the Open Space always starts with a marketplace. What will happen this time? It totally depends on YOU. Please bring your own questions, ideas and issues to the camp!
After the first unconference day and a little break to check in and refresh you meet for a nice dinner in the so called “Orangerie”, a particularly nice place in the hotel’s park.
The second day of our Open Space allows us to inspect and adapt. What do you want to change? What did you not yet bring to the table? You reconsider and iterate!
After the unconference finale, you have a relaxed dinner in the bistro restaurant close to the first park entrance, where all the breakfasts and lunches took place, too.
On Saturday, you meet the ComoCamp organizers and go on a little tour (max 3 hours max 300m altitude): with a little bit of weather luck leading us to a nice view over Vienna.
After our little hike through the Wienerwald, you reach a cozy little Pizzeria to share the very last lunch time together. Maybe some non-hikers will also meet us there? :)
Please note that our tickets are non-refundable, but freely transferable, in other words there is no very good reason to wait until we are sold out. 😉 You may pay per credit-card, but we also offer to pay by invoice, feel free to choose this option during your checkout process. And by the way: the tickets do not contain any deductible value added tax (VAT), as the camp is organized by “Collaborate Vienna”, a non-profit association registered by austrian law.

The ComoCamp and its affordable ticket prices would not be possible without financial support. Thank you very much for making the camp fly!
TechTalk deeply believes in the principles behind collaborative modelling and sociotechnical architectures. They enabled us to bring the first ComoCamp 2023 to Vienna.
WPS has believed in the ComoCamp idea right from the start and helps continuously to bring the Collaborative Modeling community together.

Since the original idea for the ComoCamp in early 2019, a team of true believers went through "pandemic" cancellations, but made it finally happen! :)
