2) Josie Delap, @josiedelap, The Economist

Lighting pitches include...

Joanna Geary on a New Project
Drinks!

As a novice, I really enjoyed it. Good length (though thought it could have started more promptly to leave a little more chat time at the end), very interesting speakers (two felt right as well) and smart questions from all. I'm an old school "let's have name badges type" - with 200 people it's handy.

Alas computer emergency means I won't make it in time. Another space up for grabs! Thanks

Hi all, when people who can't come make their spaces available, those at the top of the waiting list automatically get added, and will be informed up Meetup email. Just so you know :)
Also please make sure we have your FULL NAME on here so our list is correct. Thanks!
September 24, 2014
That is the case, I'm afraid. People on the top of the waiting list get priority.
September 24, 2014
Sorry to join the chain of people jumping ship but I can't make it either. I will be there next time though. Thank you, Jessie

Thank you so much for the offer of a place. Unfortunately I didn't expect to get in so accepted an invite to a theatre press night. In Peckham... and so someone else can now have this space. Hope to be at the next one.
September 24, 2014
Hi! I am on a waiting list now but my friend Daniel Palumbo who is registered just confirmed he will not be able to attend. Is it possible for me to come instead of him? Thanks!
September 24, 2014
Gutted that I can now no longer make it this evening. Space now available. Very much looking forward to the next one.
September 24, 2014
I was looking forward to my first meeting, but unfortunately can't make now.
Another spot is open.
Enjoy all..
September 24, 2014
Hi Guys another spot is available, can't make it tonight due to a deadline.
September 24, 2014
Have had a presentation sprung up on me for Thursday morning, can't make it!
Freed up the space which is a shame as I really wanted to go.
September 23, 2014
Obviously I don't want people to drop out - or not too many - but as I was slow to sign-up and I'm currently on the waiting list do remember to cancel if you can't come...
September 22, 2014
Sorry to miss this one, but hope catch up with y'all at DEN on Nov 6th.
