ORGCon North is our new digital rights conference which this year will
be held in Manchester! <http://www.orgconorth.eventbrite.com>

The event is packed with exciting speakers, panel debates and workshops.
We have John Buckman, chair of the inspiring Electronic Frontier
Foundation <https://www.eff.org/> (EFF) and founder of the record label
Magnatune <http://magnatune.com/> giving the keynote speech.

There will be further talks on copyright, data protection, Section 127
and the Communications Data Bill.

We are also offering an “unconference track” with room for any
attendees, pannel guests or ORG staff to pop up a talk or debate on
something you care about. This is your conference!

We'll be focusing this conference on our current key campaigns, and
supporting the local groups in Manchester, Sheffield and the North East.
