The registration price was not close to $300. It was $109 if you registered early - $159 until cutoff time and $180 at the door.
We try to keep registration price affordable, consider your budget when booking a hotel with decent rates, and try to make sure that you have affordable convenient lunches. I make sure you have places to network in a social but business environment.
I care about your ROI - if I keep those basic prices in line, I don't have to worry about anyone having a successful show. If you can't make back the basic expenses in attending - you are doing something wrong!
There is a lot of competition for shows nowdays. Our focus has always been trying to provide an affordable level playing ground for all the companies. Education and networking the main focus. That is not going to change. Maybe, that is why after 10 yrs we are still here:-)
