If you sit in a room with close to 4,000 people, chances are your going to make a new friend. At the last two SW Worlds, I have made quite a few. More so than just new business contacts, but friends you can look to when you have a Solidworks question you need answered. Being a user group leader, I have made it a point to try to meet people from my region, and try to spread the word about the group. I have also put faces to names of the other group leaders, and because of that, have been able to go to some of them when I have a question I just cant answer.
So dont be shy when you are walking around. The names on the badges are there for a reason. You will notice that when you start talking to someone, they will instantly look down at your badge and see who you are. You will be suprised who you will run into!
good advice. The first time I went I didn't know what to expect or what to do. Bring your business card and talk to people! you'll get as much out of that as some of the sessions!
