QuantCon Agenda

So - already up to 27 separate speakers for this 8 hour tour at QuantCon? Quite amazing!

Is this going to necessitate multiple tracks, or will this be a firehose of speed presentations?

I'm hoping attendees will receive pdfs of presentation materials, in either case. This could be quite the fast and furious experience!

Regards,
Ken

Thanks for posting the agenda, folks! (glad I scrolled all the way down, not sure how long it's been there!)

Ugh - the heart sank a bit when I saw the 4 talks per session, but I appreciate you posting the abstracts.
That will help to make the truly tough decisions! :) people I wanted to hear vs. subjects of interest vs. info for now vs. later...

I know that's the approach for most conferences, but this certainly has lots of good relevant speakers and topics all around!
