  • Anders: We managed ThinkTwice as a sucess. They even have invited us back. I made a lot of great connections during the IGF. Among them with a three top european ISP about cooperation with PPI.

4 Second ThinkTwice conference

Financial outcome? As far as Anders know, the budget of 3000 EUro has not been exceeded. The receipts are not yet computed into a report - Anders suggest to take photos of it and send it to Bastian.
How many attendees we had? - No idea - some people, that came and left. All together it was somewhat in the area of 80-90 people during the course of the two days.
The videos will be published on the ppi youtube channel. Arif will get temporarilly admin rights to do the uploads.
we hope to learn about the detailed financial outcome, and look forward to it next meeting.
Next time we need more people organizing the conference, or hire and external company.
