btconf is — hands down — my favourite of all confs I’ve spoken at. Marc goes the extra mile to give the conf its own character, atmosphere, and makes it a unique experience for all. 100% recommended. It sets the bar high for all design confs in our community.

In the first moment it might look like all those conference are the same anyways. Yes, on the first view this might be the case, but beyond tellerrand is different and here is why. We also understand that you think you lose someone for two or even three days and that the ticket price is just a small factor, but travel and accommodation cost add to it. But what if we tell you, that your employees will return energised and full of motivation to get things done?

Compared to other events beyond tellerrand is certainly one of the events with lower priced tickets. We think inclusion already starts at ticket pricing and want to build and foster a well balanced and diverse community. Cost adds up though and in addition to the ticket price of €349 (incl. VAT/MwSt and booking fees), you need to calculate around €80–€150 each night in the hotels near to our venues. Depending on the choice of traveling the cost for transportation varies and flying, especially from abroad, is more expensive than other options. But no matter how much it is in the end, it is well invested money into the future of your happy, positively engaged employee.
