Jessica Livingston Speaking at Business of Software Conference in Boston
- sanj 18y agoI wonder if we could get discounted HN tix.
- robg 18y agoYeah - $1800 (or by 7/22 - $1500) says we're not the audience.
- ericb 18y agoSounds like the business of conferences is even better than the business of software.
- drubio 18y agoRight on, even makes you think if Joel Spolsky product's are the money-makers, when the conference has a sub-line : "A Joel on Software Conference"! ( http://www.businessofsoftware.org/ http://www.businessofsoftware.org/ )
- scott_s 18y agoI doubt it. Even the ACM conferences I've been to have fees around $500. Putting on a conference is not cheap. They have to rent a large amount of space in a high demand building for a weekend and feed everyone who comes. Think about it this way: a medium sized wedding reception in a nice hotel can cost around $20,000. That wedding reception takes up one large room and lasts less than five hours. Now imagine taking up that entire floor of the hotel for 96 hours. It won't be cheap.
- ericb 18y agoMost of the conferences I've looked into cost around $500-$800, rather than $1,800, which makes me think there might be some money left over.
