Speaking Dutch – all night long
Last night we had our ‘Hollandse avond’ / Dutch evening. For all those that speak a few Dutch words: you were cordially invited for a small tour of the bay, a few drinks (no alcohol, naturally) and interesting conversations. I shared a table with a alumni from my college, one of them was perfect in imitating professors from way-back-when. Brought back mostly good and some bad memories…good fun.
Times flies when you’re having fun a User Conference. I had several meetings about open innovation, prepped the City of Rotterdam’s presentation (the one that was featured in the 3D part of the plenary) and went through the –endless- exhibition floor again. Thursday morning I met up with Geocortex, one of our partners, to review where we are both going. We really have a working partnership, didn’t that get started here at the UC two years ago? I noted there are even more companies participating in the exhibition this year, great that we are able to provide this platform to them. Next (in one hour): a goodbye party!
BTW: I took a break from the UC (felt like skipping class) to visit a bookstore. At Borders –great name for a bookstore, I explore borders of GIS- I got a few new books, should get me through the summer.
