Having a choice, two tracks of presentations to pick from, is the perfect way of running an event like this. Bonny Colville-Hyde and Todd Motto, for example, gave two of the most memorable talks I sat in on. The Rising Stars track (an alternative schedule of talks running parallel with the main stage) featured designers and developers who may not have been so well-known before, but will certainly be on your radar soon. Many others are well known personalities- Sarah Parmenter and Steven Hay delivering exactly what everyone knew they would rich and engaging presentations. Some, such as Harry Roberts, Rachel Nabhors, Paul Boag (he recently wrote a book, by the way) Jason Pamental, and Peter Gasston have featured on Tuts+ before. For two days (and I apologise about the machine-gun flurry of tweets during that time) I was entertained and educated by both familiar and new faces. The Speakersīut the real reason we go to events like this is to see the speakers. And The Brewery is a great venue having hosted several times it feels made for the job. The catering, the goodies, the continuing games and competitions these are all things which make attendees feel valued and welcome.
Little things, like making sure everyone has constant and decent WIFI, are really important, but not as easy as you may think (it's all to do with having enough access points Tash reliably informs me). I recently spent two days at Future of Web Design in London and, over a week later, I'm still having trouble wiping this massive smile off my face.įuture Insights has quite a bit of heritage and they've held this conference for long enough (this is the eighth) to know exactly what they're doing.
