The Web & Communities Summit 2008 is by far the best tech conference I have ever joined. I have created so much new international network and the tour also gave me insight to a bunch of new technologies and concepts within the web sphere.

Great selection of entrepreneurs, with a good variety of stage, geography and sector spread. I met the people I wanted to meet, and new companies, I could not ask for more.

Great content, great companies, great audience and outstanding venue and logistics as always with the Tech Tour events.

- Nicolas Landrin, Partner, I-Source Gestion, France

The Web & Communities event, while only the second of its type, was a great success, since it brought together many of the top European companies in that space.

Many thanks to the Tech Tour team for the flawless organization and the selection of the companies.
