Live from Orlando…It’s Gartner Symposium

by Nick Gall  |  October 14, 2008  |  Comments Off

There is arguably no more intense experience for an IT analyst than Gartner Symposium. And I can say that as an ex-META analyst — METAmorphosis (META’s flagship event) was wonderful, but in terms of the sheer numbers of interactions it pales in comparison. When I am not presenting, I am engaged in one-on-one meetings with clients. And when I am not doing either of those two activities, I’m probably having a meal with a client.

Overall, its a wonderful experience, but a mentally exhausting one. Which is why I haven’t post anything in the last couple of days. I barely had time to post this at our lunch break — food comes before blogging after all. I’ll try to post some of my impressions when I’m back home later this week.
