Anu’s take

Worth the drive if you are building anything on the mid-island, and I have made that drive. No speaker, no sponsor slot and no program: thirty seconds each to introduce yourself, then two hours of the room sorting itself out. Graham still promises to remind people to circulate, which suggests he knows how these evenings usually go. That is the whole product, and it works.
