Downtown Raleigh Alliance Reviews

 i work here 5 days a week

 The price of this event is somewhat high given that most of the content could have been consumed online in written form. However, it has value as a networking event.

 Ask panelists to reveal things we don’t already know about some of their projects when they’re on a panel. These panelists are selling to people who already buy in to DTR... I want fresh insight, fresh ideas, storytelling, etc... I loved the Raleigh Times and Dillon stories from Stacey and Kissia. Each panel was maybe 10 min too long.

 The venue was small and intimate. It is easier to make connections and engage with other participants when capacity is 50-150 people instead of a large 500+ venue or event.

 Very nice

 This is such a great event. I love that everyone comes out for it. Its' great networking and provides great updates on the state of DTR

 Event was great overall; the venue was cozy and the temperature was way too high, even before the event started to get crowded. I did like the "sellout" feel of the room however - I'd continue to use a venue that isn't too big, but make sure the AC is cranking. Content overall was great - a lot was crammed in, but it seemed to work. I wouldn't go any longer or try to put even more people on the stage - it was a lot already, kind of overwhelming. tha

 The Pre-Session in particular was excellent. The strength of the panel and the candor that was expressed was very compelling. Thank you creating a space for this to occur.

 I thoroughly enjoyed myself and loved hearing about the developments around the Raleigh community. Can’t wait to help out.
