Bogdan,
It is a pleasure knowing you and thank you for your lovely words. We are all working to rid the world of crappy software companies. We ran this through Google translate. The office hasn’t stopped laughing since…
Every year thousands of worldwide organizes conferences on technology and entrepreneurship. Any ranking is subjective , but there are several conferences that I think would really top place among everyone. One of my favorite conferences , conference probably the best content in the world is BoS – Business of Software.
Who even saw a presentation from BoS know what I mean. Each is consistent with no frills and insane show simply good content and interesting for professionals in the room . It’s what I always tried to do and How to Web , Part I and succeeded, but we definitely learned things .
This year I had the opportunity to know the Mark Littlewood , founder and organizer of the BoS . Although BoS is organized in Boston , Mark lives with his family in Cambridge and was mentor to Springboard IoT . Initially I did not recognize , although name sounds somewhat familiar. Then Jon said to me : “If you want to give some interesting people for How to Web , can talk to Mark . Mark Littlewood . One who organizes BoS . ” . I can not say as I blew his mind when I realized who I had before in previous days .
Mark is , like many Englishmen , a guy looked like a rock star with good manners and decent total . We’ve seen several times on coffee , we talked about how to organize a conference agenda , we have found common ground , we parted friends. Recommended I Adii Pienaar , who will open the 2013 edition of How to Web , and I hope that in future editions to have him and invited him as a speaker .
I wrote this post because today announced that BoS BoS presentations from 2012 are free. If you have time today, tonight, tomorrow , this weekend , ever, take a look . Any time you see it will not be wasted.
