Do You Know The Way To San Jose?
I guess I had to use that title since it has been that song that has been playing over in over in my head since I found out I was headed to San Jose for a conference at the end of October. I’ll be attending the Blogwell event hosted by GasPedal, a marketing firm specializing in word of mouth marketing. The conference is being held at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center on October 28, 2008 from 1-5 p.m. and will include some big named companies that are presenting, including, Wal-Mart, Wells Fargo, Home Depot and others. This will be my first time at the convention center in San Jose and from looking at their site and perusing the highlights, it reveals:
Meeting planners will find plenty of space inside the convention center. We have the ability to host events of all types and sizes by offering:
- 143,000 square feet of column-free exhibit space
- Room for 1,000 10′ x 10′ booths
- A 22,000-square-foot ballroom
- 100,000 square feet of pre-function space
- Up to 31 meeting rooms with capacities from 50 to 2,400 in theater-style seating
- Banquet seating and kitchen facilities for 5,000
I will be only out for the day so I wont have much time to meet with anyone from that facility but I hope to get some pictures and the ability to provide a review of that center while I am there. I was interested to note that the City of San Jose boasts being the 10th largest city in the United States. I would not have thought it to be the 10th largest city in California.
