:withstupi (sorry, I always wanted to use that…)
I have been wondering the same thing as stupid. I have never been to an industry event. Is it worth it? I have a family, and explaining why I have to go to Amsterdam will be a chore to say the least…
On the other hand, I have been very concerned with the industy as of late. A chance to discus these isues in person with people in the know sounds good. But then again, is anyone really in the know these days?
