I was shocked the other day when my boss approached me about going to SolidWorks World this go round. Times have been hard at our company for quite a while so I more or less thought when I sent him the 'boss justification' email that I would never hear anything about it. I had forgotten about even sending the email to him since it was over 3 months and I hadn't heard a word from him. But anyway it looks like I might finally be going this year (actually next year), the question concerns my co-worker. He would be going also if he wishes but he is concerned that he wouldn't be able to absorb much knowledge by just listening to the presentations but on the other hand he has a hard time following the presentation if he's trying to take notes. I was wondering if the presenter give out handouts of the material or not. I think this would be beneficial to all.
What are everyone's general impressions of SWW? Have you seen the productivity increases? How has the 'networking' actually help your company?
I know this has been discussed before but it is always good for us newbies to hear from the gurus again.
thanks
