Have they increased the fees, btw?
No idea
I like EBACE a lot as I can see all the people that I want to meet in one place in three days. Main issue I have is that there are too many people to meet so you don't get to really speak all of them. But still I rather do 1 EBACE a year instead of 10 small events or meetings so for us it is definitely value for money
(except for the bl@@dy hotels)
