Live from BIO (Sample 2)



Wednesday, 6/18/08


Day two on the tradeshow floor was busy as expected and it also allowed me the first opportunity to step out of my company's booth and walk the floor.  Stopping by the Indiana Pavilion first, I was able to greet a few friends as well as meet some who were new to me.  It was obvious that those in the Indiana booth are working hard since two different representatives visited me in my company booth to make sure I was wearing my Indiana magnet!  Today is the longest day of the show as the State of Indiana dinner was scheduled in the evening.  The IEDC did an excellent job of securing prime real estate for the dinner on top of the Western Metal Supply Company Building which is now a part of PETCO Park, home of the San Diego Padres.  Views of the ballpark, downtown, and the San Diego Bay only accentuated the already fantastic dinner.


At the commencement of the dinner, a large group of attendees topped off the evening with a journey to Altitude, one of San Diego's hottest nightspots which is located on the roof of the Mariott.  I think it is safe to say that all in attendance had a great time at both the dinner and at the after party.  The longest day at BIO is over and tomorrow will bring our last full day at the conference.





This entry would be informative for those attending the event from Indiana about the happenings for the state at BIO.  I would make a note as a participant from Indiana at next years BIO to attend the state dinner and after hour functions.  You will see that in the blog the creator can embed links wit in their posting that would be useful for event participants and readers.  Another example of simple and useable content.
