Newstart Scotland is back again for 2009 on Friday 27th and Saturday 28th March. I've posted a link to the site below and you can also apply for free tickets :)

I am hoping to get along for at least one of the two days and if any one else is going please let me know and we can perhaps meet up for a chat or a coffee :)

Hi ,

Thank you for this, i've just registered my details & will more than likely head through on the Saturday. (Unless either of the big two are at home in the football, then i'll do Friday)

Kind Regards

Neil Gould:thumbup:

I've registered for the free tickets and will likely go along on the Friday.

Not 100% sure what value there will be a for a specialist retail business but that's really why I am going, to see what I'm missing.

It's been over a week since I registered and no tickets yet, anyone else received there's yet?

Cheers,

Dave

I've also registered for the free tickets and will likely go along on the Friday as it should (hopefully) be less busy.

I went to a new start exhibition a few years ago and it was brilliant, lots of useful seminars & information, and interesting & varied exhibitors. In complete contrast however, last years attempt was really dissapointing with more than half of the exhibitors offering web design/hosting.

It's been over a week since I registered and no tickets yet, anyone else received there's yet?

Not sure and I could be wrong, but I seem to remember the registration pages stating that tickets will be issued within the two weeks prior to the event.

I registered for tickets the other week (they pestered me for a while about exhibiting but didn't think it was worth while at the moment) - will probably go along on the Friday.

I didn't get my visitors tickets until the week before last year, so will probably be the same again this year.

We are actually going to have a stand this year in the New Business section, stand NB1. So come along and visit us if you get the chance.

Friday morning and saturday early afternoon are meant to be the busiest times.

Nice one - I've ordered my tickets now and am looking forward to attending.

Has anyone taken a stand at this event in the past? What did it cost and was it worthwhile?

I have the brochure but am not exhibiting.

Costs printed in it are £325 + vat per sqm for an empty area or £345 + vat per sqm for an area with them supplying and constructing the stand, carpet and name boards.

No probs Intrepid. The brochure I have doesn't state whether that is per day or for the event as a whole - I would imagine it would be the latter, but you'd have to check with them to be sure.

The exhibitor details are on their website too, although there doesn't seem to be much difference from the info in the pdf I have.

Just got tickets to go to this as i really want to see Oli Normans talk.

Went last year aswell and it was dreadful apart from Rachel Elnaughs talk and a couple of others, it was full of suits and pompus looking gits thinking they are the bee's knees!

Probably pop in in time for Oli Norman and leave.

Oli Norman is well worth going to see/hear... excellent speaker, and most enjoyable! Once you've seen him, at least give us a wee hello on stand D2 (we won't even be wearing suits ;) )
