And soo Collison 2022 in person comes to a close it was amazing to be back after collison 2020-2021 transitioned to Online for 2 years But there is nothing like the in person experience to meeting & seeing people in person
Talking to startups to hearing there stories and how they wanna provide solutions to problems they want to solve with there service / product
When i first arrived i noticed 2022 version was going to be different and learned from past years with moving registration from that narrow walkway just inside direct energy centre to its own building across the street it was very spacious so there was no wait times hardly 2019 was mad chaos
The total floor space needed at the Enercare Centre has increased by 54%, from 50,000sqm to 77,000sqm. For the first time, Collision will be using the entire Beanfield Centre building, and will be using outdoor space for food trucks, seating and circulation.
Gave me a chance to met other people & chat about there reason for being at collision
Then media got to go into the halls early & get my seat before the general seating happened
