Sounds like an interesting panel (all the more so since you'll be on it!). I can't wait to hear a full report.
Sounds like an excellent forum. I second the full report.
When I hear of events like this I know it would be brilliant to attend, but I'd probably leave incredibly anxious!! (Wondering and stressed about all I need to do next!)
Deep breath, one thing at a time! Technology is truly changing the way everything is done in business, it is hard not to be overwhelmed, but one thing at a time, it will all get done!
I look forward to your report, the version I'll be able to handle!!
