Summit 2018 registration status

The speed at which places at Summit are being purchased has been amazing. We’re down to our LAST 25 places. At present rates I expect those to be gone by this time next week. If you want a place at Summit 2018 - BUY NOW. If you know of anyone who wants a place at Summit 2018 - tell them to BUY NOW Last year we managed to add about 30 places after selling our initial number.

Summit 2018 registration update

As an update to the registrations for Summit 2018 - we’ve sold 75% of the available places. As Don explained we won’t be able to add further places like we did last year. This is our biggest (and hopefully best) Summit yet with more sessions and nearly double the number of speakers. If you want a place I recommend not waiting. Last year we sold our last place on 24 February.
