Where is ProductCamp?
Tepper Building - Carnegie Mellon University 4765 Forbes Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15213 Where should I check-in?
Check-in and registration is mandatory for this event. Check-in will be located next to Simmons Auditorium on the Forbes Avenue side of the building, Level 1 entrance. If you enter at Forbes Avenue (sidewalk cut-in at Level 1 Entrance): You will be at the registration table set up on the exterior of the auditorium. Signage will be on the first two floors of the building to guide you. If you enter from the 2nd floor quad entrance (larger open entrance at front of the building): Please proceed left and around the refreshment stands down the stairs OR from the quad entrance straight ahead down the elevator to the first floor. What's a pre-submitted session?
So you've pre-submitted a session on our site here. Great! Now what? 1. When you arrive at the start of ProductCamp, your pre-submitted session will already be displayed in the voting area. 2. Each attendee will have the opportunity to vote for their top 3 sessions. 3. After the first morning keynote, we will announce which sessions have been chosen by the attendees and are a part of this year's schedule. (The schedule is not finalized until the morning of PCamp, that's why it's an unconference!) 4. If your session is chosen you should come to the "Speaker Session Area" so we can let you know which room your session will be held in! Who are the cool people in the different colored ProductCamp shirts?Those awesome folks are ProductCamp volunteers! If you have a question or concern, just track down one of our many volunteers and we will help you throughout the day! Can you tell me more about the free childcare?Children should be over the age of 2 but special accommodations may be made if they are younger. We will need to know prior to the event if you are planning on using the childcare with Flexable by filling out the registration form. Childcare is from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and cannot be extended into the Google After Party. Parents must remain in the same building (Tepper Quad) as their children at all times. What is the age limit for childcare? We take care of children ages 2-18, unless other accommodations have been made to take care of children under the age of two. Can Flexable care for sick children?
Do you offer a lactation room?

What else should I know about check-in?

Being on-time is the name of the game: The first 300 attendees to check-in are guaranteed free swag. We also suggest you get your seat early for the opening keynote, as space is limited. How does on-site voting work?
Attendees will receive 3 ‘dots’ to use for voting the morning of ProductCamp at Check-In. Just place a dot on any session posted on the session grid that you plan on attending. The voting helps us allocate appropriate times and rooms for each session. Anyone interested in posting a topic for consideration should arrive early and post their topic before voting starts at 8:45 am. Google After Party
