This is a fantastic conference (so I've heard) and was very excited
about the possibility of going, and having my whole team attend as well.

Sadly, it conflicts with UDS and a design/ux sprint we're doing before
UDS :-(

Come May, however, I will be downloading the linked papers and
presentations. There are *very many* talks that I not only would have
enjoyed attending, but ones that would have sparked a lot of great
innovation in the team. I'm hoping we can extract as much as possible
from the conference materials provided to the non-attending public!

Thanks, Ikbel, for sharing this with folks :-)
