I was grateful to be given a chance to help in this event. Starting from setting the stage, decoration and twitting during the events. This event has inspired me to do more and dream big, inline with a quote from the talks;
"We shouldn't try to motivate people, but inspire them.
Because inspiration is irreversible.
Special thanks for Carl Mezcla, Alex Lindqvist, David Relan, Sami Rabey and other people that i have met in these joyful event.
