EIBTM 2009

Group Dynamics and XTOL would like to say a big thank you to all the visitors and friends that came to see us at the recent EIBTM in Barcelona in December. We had a great time meeting new and existing clients and discovering how many diverse and interesting applications there are out there.

We have always believed that a successful solution needs to have not only the best technology behind it but also the best human team. Without the experience and capability to understand each and every requirement, no technology can successfully and completely adapt and eventually will force the customer to make compromises.

With the diversity of applications that we have launched and the myriad of ideas and questions that have come back from EIBTM, we are extremely excited to be able to say 'yes' to so many projects, many of which are only loosely connected with the traditional use of interactive voting and audience response technology.

Ich bin ein Berliner!

Maritim Berlin HotelSitting at the side of a stage just in case a conference phone stops working is a little bit tedious. But I only had to do it for half an hour, so for once I got to see some of the city I was working in.

I was staying at the Maritim Hotel, just south of the Tiergarten, which is surrounded by lots of museums, libraries and suchlike. But no time for wandering around soaking in the culture... I had only enough time to see a few of the important sights.

Stockholm in Spring

Whilst on a job near Stockholm I was lucky enough to get a few days off in between voting shows.

My hotel was in a small town called Södertälje, but thankfully the train station was only a 10min walk away.  The only downside was although it was down hill to the station; it was uphill on the way back!  A return ticket to Stockholm was 100SEK, and you could use it as many times as you liked within 24hours from when you bought it.

Like any capital city there are of course shops! But, since it is located in Scandinavia, everything was a tad on the expensive side…..

Fortunately there is more to Stockholm than shops.  Given that I only had three days to explore, and my only way of getting around was on foot (I didn’t fancy trying to work out the bus timetable!) I decided to stick to the city.

 

So, what is there to actually do in the city of Stockholm?
