Conference feedback

Amazing event. I really enjoyed it!!!


It was stunning. The conference was really one of a kind. I really got much benefit from this conference. Thanks to you it was a unique conference hoping to have such an experience again. Many thanks Proz.


Even though I was not able to attend all sessions due to relevant reasons, I would like to thank deeply all people who have done their best for the success of the conference. It was my first time to attend such conference of high level, and I have to say that I have learned a lot due to the diversity of topics. This is another way of refreshing our mind. Once again thank you for the possibility of downloading individual presentation on demand.
