All part of the game. We’ll be back. Moving to a new city is simply a negotiation tool.
Remember when MMS moved to San Diego for a couple years? Had to be done to make the Vegas resorts renegotiate their prices back to reasonable levels. When a show is successful in an area for a few years, the hotels start raising prices. You either have to move hotels, or move cities. San Francisco is nice this time of year.

ITDC 2016 is in 2 weeks, but 2017 will be moving to San Francisco.

I miss MMS. So, I guess I go outside to get something decent. -Roland Von: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von [email protected] Gesendet: Dienstag, 27.

Plus, there’s a LOT of eateries in the downtown area. You don’t have to eat conference food like you did being stuck at the event center in Chicago last year. MSFT counts on offloading meals every year, which is why they spend a lot of cycles promoting local restaurants. Consider, too, that Microsoft doesn’t intend to make money off the conference. This is free marketing for them, so they’ll save costs where they can. Makes a lot of sense for a conference this size.

Rod Trent From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Roland Janus Sent: Tuesday, September 27, 2016 12:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [mssms] Horrible food at Ignite I’m kind of surprised that there are not a zillion comments about the horrible food we get at Ignite. Cold sandwiches? Seriously and like the same every day? I’ve good better food on any airplane and it’s warm. That is just not acceptable. -R
