METM17: Attendees' feedback

Comments from the post-METM survey

"As a newcomer, I am delighted with the wide array of information, friendly exchange, both at a formal level in the conferences and workshops, as well as in the informal social meetings."
♦
"A very high standard and a good mix, as always. The great thing about MET is that you end up enjoying the most unlikely sounding presentations that may be absolutely unrelated to the work you do."
♦
"I think the conferences, the website and MET are all getting better, more interesting and diverse as the years go by. I see improvement everywhere and am more enthusiastic about being a member than ever before."

Comments on social media

"My expectations were high, and MET did not disappoint."
"This is the forum I have been seeking for so long! It’s nice to have arrived at home, finally."
"The event was deliberately kept intimate, which created a lot of opportunities for real conversations with new people."
"In the unlikely event that I was only able to go to one conference a year, I’d say it would have to be METM."
"Am still on a learning high and expect to be for some time to come."
