5. What suggestions do you have to make this conference more valuable to you and your company?
|
| Vendor demo site was a bit to small. |

|
| Pre-load the presentations in the morning onto UCAIG website if possible, so they can be downloaded by delegates. This is more useful to me as following the presentation webcast means that I can not dwell on the detail of a slide before the presenter moves on. Even better, present delegates with a memory stick loaded with all the presentations so these can be more easily shared with colleagues back home.
If an abstract of each presentation across all streams was available, it would be very helpful to deciding upon which groups to drop in on. I feel that I may have missed out on relevant work presented in other streams because I was not familiar with their topics and not able to see in advance what they would be presenting. |

| The different track had to much overlap. I wanted to be in two tracks at the same time. Hard to chose were my time would be best spent.
Need to interlace the programs smarter. |

|
| This time were three tracks in paralell. Suggest to planned joint tracks on common topics, e.g. CIM-61850 and CIM-MultiSpeak etc. |

| As a utility representative not currently involved deeply in this subject matter I would like to see more focus on education and use. The groups today are working hard to continue defining/refining standards but I would like to learn how to make use of this work. This can be accomplished more on the web site by exposing more to the public. For example just learned about and have lots of interest in 61850 work. I didn't know it existed or it's purpose based on my review of the web site since very little information is posted. The web site could be more useful to me than a conference. |
