You know with all the hype, the obvious need for a reputation, the requirement to have 'VIP' passes to get anywhere after hours, the lack of real business benefit apart from 'being seen' and most importantly the move towards even having your toilet breaks organised ....
Is it no wonder many of us from overseas wouldn't spend the estimated $4-5000 and whole week away from work to come over there?
Internext sponsors and participants would benefit from having me and my business attend the conventions, because my current business presents many opportunities for others, and we spend a lot of $ on the many services being offered at the convention.
But simply put ... internext doesn't make at all appealing to people like me. From what I see, there is a large shift towards more local conventions and gatherings, and reading the reports from each past Internext ... I can understand why.
