It’s time. Inman Connect New York is next week (January 22-26, 2018), and many of our attendees will be traveling this weekend. We can’t wait to share the event with you, and our team here at Inman is busy making all those last minute tweaks to make the event as effective, meaningful and helpful as possible for you.
But in the flurry of excitement, it’s easy to miss something to bring. Perhaps that charging cord that keeps you from running low on battery power by lunchtime on the first day. Or that pair of comfortable shoes that’s seen you through many conferences in the past. We asked our Inman Community Facebook Group for their best suggestions for what not to forget, and their last-minute tips. Here’s a selection of some of our favorites.
Andrea Geller: “Make sure the Starbucks app is loaded. Current credit cards on Uber and Lyft.”
