Event Postponed to 2010
Well, in case you weren’t already aware, the event scheduled for 25 November has had to be postponed for a few months.
While we had really excellent support from sponsors and speakers, we felt there just wasn’t enough participants to make it worthwhile for those attending. As we’ve seen at our first event in Manchester earlier this year, a lot of the value in gatherings like this comes from the opportunities for networking, discussion and interaction among those taking part.
So while this is really disappointing for us, particularly after the success of the Manchester conference and the hard work put into the London event, the good thing is what we’ve learned from this will allow us to build a better and more valuable event in the future. Our thanks again to all those who offered their support, and also our apologies to all those looking forward to the event.
But onwards and upwards. All being well, we’re hoping to schedule the event early on in 2010, so stay tuned for news as and when.

Sorry to hear that. It was just too short notice (as well as being Yet Another London Event) for me.

Yes, we’re disappointed too. I’m looking at the possibility of running the event maybe with a different format or focus. Any suggestions or thoughts appreciated.

You won’t like this, but it’d be easiest to attend if we know 12 weeks ahead and it’s near an Intercity station in the South-West or West Midlands regions. North West and South East OK. Starting late morning or lunchtime can halve the travel cost by avoiding congested roads or rails and make it easier to attend.
