The organisers started off with a grand design for a three day seminar and exhibition and printed a nice four page Brochure.
However the number of registrants for the conference was below that anticipated and they issued a revised programme for a one day seminar.
As far as I remember, speaker one - Joe Bosworth did not attend.
