I was thinking about attending but wanted to know if it is worth the trip.
1. Has anyone here attended it before? If yes, did you feel it was money well spent?
2. What types of exhibitors are at the conference?
3. Being a (new) small consulting firm, is there any good networking opportunites there?
By the way, it is in Florida:cool:.

Check out the website and decide for yourself. http://iso9000conference.com


Personally, I normally get a sore fanny and tired feet at those things and not much else. I've found them to be mainly "good old boy network" and "look how much I know that you don't" affairs.

Hello egarry,

You don't have to go to Florida, "attend" The Cove Forums instead! :D

No travel involved
Thousands of (mostly) nice people from around the world
Networking opportunities galore (follow Marc's guidelines though!)
Ongoing learning and new things every day
Opportunity to share your knowledge with others
