When it comes to the conference, you’ll want to bring all the networking essential like business cards, a notebook, pen, some merch items if you have ’em, and whatever else you typically bring to a networking event. Aside from those, some comfy shoes are DEFINITELY recommended. From all the showcases at the conference to the live shows all around the city, be prepared to explore.
