Regardless of your position and association; production company, manufacturer, dealer, consultant; video will have a significant and lasting impact on your future business.

gareth Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 As seems to be BR tradition, here is the poll to see who's going to Leeds this spring ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gareth Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 I hear a rumour that the show has had to move back into the older, smaller hall in the Armouries due to licensing problems with the new space. Is that right? What a bummer! It would really have benefited from the extra space. Ah well, it'll be a bit cosier and more intimate! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
