From: Nina Petrov
Subject: Report on Lumos conference

Dear Jonas,

Thanks for making it possible for me to go to the Lumos conference in London last week. As you know, it is the biggest technology conference in the country and very important to our work.

I learned a lot and I've made some new contacts that will be good for our company. I think we should try to attend the 'Innovation Day' in April as well.

I focused on talks about robotics, as that is our most interesting area at the moment. The presentations on robot 'hands' and robots for hospitals were particularly interesting for us. I'm attaching a detailed report on this new research with some suggestions about how we can use it.

Thanks again for this opportunity. I'm happy to discuss the report further if you're interested.

Best regards,
Nina

I am interested in the real state because I think we can gain a lot of money if we invest in it because of that I was careful about attending any real state exhibition, I received an invitation from one of the real state companies I was so glad to have it and I went to this event I found plenty of most famous real state companies which present a lot of valuable offers I've made some new contacts of companies which were been useful for me, I benefited a lot of this event it helped me to know much information about how to buy and which unit i buy and for sure the prices for each area, it was grade experience

One or twice a year I attend events or conferences. They provide a great opportunity to learn something new and to meet new people.

Dear Laura,

I want to thank you for the amazing conference that you hosted last week. The organization, catering, and the event by itself were top-notch. We learned a lot about the cutting-edge technologies that the modern world has been using for this business process. Sorry for the misunderstanding of my coworker, I promise you I won't happen again.

Do you ever go to events or conferences for work?
I have attended the exhibit for work on behalf of my company. that was a good experience. I got familiar with a lot of people in our expertise area.
I found out that if I want to get the most benefits from attending these conferences, I must be ready and focused on the subject I want to progress.

I'd love to attend the conference but I have not yet. Unfortunately, I attended an event when I was in my country. That was an amazing and unforgettable thing in my life. As far as I am concerned, attending the conference is a good way to get knowledge about marketing or business.

I went conferences on my last job where I was an engineer. They had buffet after every conference. Unfortunately, I've never attended to conferences on my current job. I don't know why. I think that I need to do though

I never had been gone to events or conferences for work because I don't work. I'm a student. But I love to attend events or conferences. It's really interesting for me.
