When I look at my notes from the sessions, and the ideas and inspirations I walked away with, along with renewed and new contacts, this was clearly a very good use of my time and a highly productive day. Looking forward to seeing what pops out of the box in 2017.
Harel Falk
VP Sales at Vexigo
The people who attended were very high level from very interesting companies that were very relevant to what I was looking for. What I liked about the conference was the level of attendees, their roles, companies and titles, great customer service and hospitality and the networking breaks where I had the chance to speak, learn and do business with other attendees.
