"1. Short talks are cool and can be really informative if built well 2. many speakers in one event is great, make the event diverse and insightful 3. sticking to the time limits is blessed"
"The best part was meeting like-minded people, including participants, sponsors and organizers - the atmosphere was great, and the challenge really drove us to deliver - loved it."
"Great venue overall. I would arrange the chairs differently using rows instead of round tables. This would free up more space for mingling, reduce physical bottlenecks."
"Keep bringing awesome content. Lightning talks are amazing, and it's nice to have that one longer talk in the middle, it's a great format.. Just make sure the longer one is also technical and it'll be the bee's knees :)"
"AutonomyAI did great with the beer and pizzas, and there were enough chairs for everybody. I did missed a microphone in order for speakers to speak clearly and didnt hear questions across other room at all."
