With a few days of sleep under our collective belts, we – Mark, Rob, Stuart, Mathew and Mike – would like to thank everyone for making mesh ’09 and meshU ’09 such great events.
We want to thank attendees for their enthusiasm, energy, curiosity and willingness to participate. As much as we spend a lot of time trying to come up with great content, it’s what our attendees bring to the table that makes mesh so amazing.
We want to thank all of our speakers for their time and effort. From top to bottom, we were impressed with your enthusiasm and generosity in spending so much time engaging with everyone.
A big thank you to all of our sponsors such as Microsoft, Edelman, CIRA and CNW. mesh couldn’t happen without you. Thanks to Sandra MacDonald for all your work with our sponsors.
Thanks to our volunteers for helping make everything run so smoothly.
Thanks to everyone at MCC Planners, particularly the amazing and tireless Sheri Moore, for making mesh and meshU run so seamlessly.
Thanks to our technology partners – mDialog, FileMobile, Sweet Caesar, Viigo, Rypple and Flip – for delivering tools and services that made the mesh experience that much better.
Thanks to Roz Allen and Mark McKay (and Stuart Macdonald!) for doing such an amazing job filming, editing and posting so much video.
