Iron Maiden singer and entrepreneur Bruce Dickinson was one of the featured speakers at last month’s Campus Party, an annual week-long, 24-hours-a-day technology festival in Medellin, Colombia, and video of his full lecture is available.
Founded in Spain in 1997, the event has evolved into a 7-day, 24-hour festival connecting online communities, gamers, programmers, bloggers, governments, universities and students and has a broad focus, covering technology innovation and electronic entertainment, with an emphasis on free software, programming, astronomy, social media, gaming, green technology, robotics, security networks and computer modeling.
Campus Party’s mission is to bring together the best talent in areas regarding technology and Internet to share experiences and innovate for a "better tomorrow."
In the spring of 2012, Dickinson and partner Mario Fulgoni launched Cardiff Aviation as a major commercial airline maintenance repair and overhaul operation in South Wales. The company is based at the Twin Peaks hangar at St. Athan in the Vale of Glamorgan.
Iron Maiden wrapped up their Maiden England tour last month in Santiago, Chile.
