Friday our early bird offer (save €300) ends and it seems to have triggered quite some people asking for a free or reduced ticket.

For projects of this size we must follow strict guidelines and rules and surely in the ticket space. All rules and guidelines are set in stone from the beginning. Otherwise you don't know where you end and it is a small world.

And people can be very creative in justifying their request ... oh yeah. We try to setup a quality event with the right content and speakers, and that has a price, as well for internal as external people. The best proof is that we will host about 8.000 people. Tech Ed: IT Forum will surely sell out. 

People can always ask but they need to be fair and accept a "No" as well. It is not fun to answer all these mails.
