Money:Tech program chair Paul Kedrosky wraps up the first-ever event on his blog:

Money:Tech came off better than I could ever have reasonably expected, especially considering it was a) a first-time event b) in an emerging subject and c) on the other side of the country. Ordinarily, self-centered sort that I am, I would cheerfully accept all praise for the event’s success and motor on, but it sure wasn’t me. Far from it.

First, Money:Tech was about the people who attended. We had more than 400 registered Money:Tech conference-goers, which was great. When I finally forced myself to peek out from behind the on-stage screen Wednesday morning minutes before showtime and saw a full house, it made all the work and worry of the last six (!) months worth it. As I said at the end of the event, the Money:Tech audience’s enthusiasm and interest carried the show (and I’m personally delighted at all the people I had a chance to meet and talk to).
