Here’s the latest from HQ:

  • We’ve posted our snazzy video from this year’s event so that (a) newcomers can get acquainted with the Forum and (b) previous delegates can play ‘Spot Myself’ in the crowd;
  • We’ve negotiated the best hotel rate ever with our HQ hotel, so stay with 400 other ticketing leaders, friends and customers by booking early before the hotel sells out.

Clearly 2016 will be our most international event ever!

The Marketplace – our boutique, mini-expo area with demo pods – went on sale this week. Repeat sponsors get first dabs (until 16 Oct) before we open up remaining pods to newcomers. Let Ian know if you have something exciting to show.

Our conference director has grilled the Advisory Panel and dozens of industry experts to start on the conference programme. We’ll be leaking a few headliners over the next few weeks. (Last chance to email Carl your ideas).

NEW! Our ‘Top Secret’ Visitor Programme kicks off next week (more on this very exciting development to follow).

NEW! TTF16 Industry Awards – Can’t say too much but you’ll want one of these 😉

PARTY! Of course in Dublin you’ll need a pint or two, so we’ve booked Guinness Storehouse – Europe’s no. 1 tourist attraction – for the evening celebrations on 27 April.

You can fly to Dublin for £10 from all over Europe if you book early…
…And if you book now we’ll pay for two hotel nights and cut £100 (saving you over £300)**. Nice.

That’s all for now. Get in touch if you want to join us / speaker / sponsor – or if you have any questions at all.

The TTF16 team

 

PS. **If your plans change, then you can cancel up to 60 days out and get a refund – or reallocate your pass to an office colleague (without penalty) at any time. Here’s that special offer link again.
