It Ain’t a Cheap Conference (1 ticket = 16,000 USD)

July 16, 2012

in Miscellaneous

Just noticed this through my Twitter timeline: Tickets for the WWW.WWW Conference, the new brainchild from TED founder Richard Saul Wurman are selling for 16,000 USD. Who needs sponsors when you can milk so much money from each individual ticket? (Don’t get me wrong, I admire RSW and I wish my event’s tickets went sold out for that individual amount).

 


 

73 55 seats are now available in the 299-seat auditorium at ESRI (click HERE for photos) in Redlands, California, for $16,000 each. This price includes conference attendance, lodging in the extraordinary Mission Inn Hotel and Spa (click HEREfor photos) in Riverside, California, and all meals from the welcome dinner on 18 September through the farewell dinner on 20 September. Please contact Rebecca Rex at rex@wurman.com with inquiries and payments. These seats are absolutely on a first-come-first served basis.”
