UKLUG Update (I need your help!)
Category None
Bookmark :
Yes, still here - just working away! Anyway, I think it's time for a quick UKLUG update...
First up - yes, there will be a UKLUG 2008. It will be on the 18th and 19th September, in Central London. This year I'm hoping to have an event big enough to let everyone that wants to attend - which means around 200-250 people.
Next - yes, it's going to be in London. Personally I would rather go up to Manchester or Birmingham, but the majority of people are in London, it's easy to get to and has alot of facilities. So, London it is.
Speakers - yes, we want more speakers, especially customer speakers. If you have a good (or bad) story and would like to tell other people about it, please email warren@elsmore.net with your details.
Sessions - we're hoping for more of the same (real people, real issues etc), but we're also looking at a number of BOF type sessions. Blackberry users, Sametime users etc. Lots of time to network
Sponsors - yes, of course, we want sponsors (these guys pay for it). To meet lots of customers, email me warren@elsmore.net to put your name on my list. I'll forward on details later on.
The venue - ah, now here's the rub. London has hundreds of conference venues, but so far I'm drawing a total blank. So, if you happen to know a central London venue that can take 250 people, with breakout rooms and a sponsor room, please email me! Even if you're trying to sell me one. I'd love to hear from you

Try the Radisson Edwardian Heathrow, good for Londoners and for those coming down from further afield
