MERGE! 2017 is ongoing, but not the only technology event to be hosted at the massive Marriott World Center in Orlando, Florida.
Since Sunday, active events have attracted crowds for other, concurrent conferences, from the telco, tech and medical world.
Simply put, Orlando is the convention capital on the East Coast – eat your heart out, Vegas.
A funny incident involved a participant of an event that is being held adjacent to the hotel’s section where MERGE! is taking place.
An attendee of that conference, wandered into the MERGE! sessions about development, and later on, into one of the blockchain sessions. He had nothing but great words to say about the conference, believing he was attending the scheduled one.
Then he noticed the MERGE! badges of other attendees that did not match his, and shared the news with the organizers.
What more affirmation does Jothan Frakes, co-founder of MERGE! need for the show’s successful launch? 😀
