Tuesday was the first day of the online entertainment B2B conference, European Summit 2012 Barcelona. The day included numerous seminars covering a variety of topics, a well-attended Speed Networking session and a couple of Happy Hours. The Hotel Miramar Barcelona is rather large but only has 75 rooms, so this meant that people were pretty well spread out most of the time. For those of us that had never stayed at this venue, it meant taking a day to figure out where all the nooks and crannies were. It seemed that a few seminars just never happened due to lack of attendance. I do not know if it was the subject matter or the fact that no one knew where it was being held.

Other than that, the hotel lobby and patio areas were quite loud with small meetings being held wherever one could find a spot to sit down. (more…)

Monday at The European Summit 2012 ended with an opening party at Shoko, an upscale nightclub in Barcelona. Sponsored by Fleshlight and co-sponsored by Brokerbabe the event pretty much set the pace for what the party scene was going to be like at this show. Parties start at 10:00 PM and last until 3:00 AM. Only the strong will survive. Luckily, nothing starts until 11:00 AM the next day. (more…)

The first event on The European Summit 2012 schedule was the YNOT Grand Prix. Sponsored by 2000Charge, this Go-Kart tour has been traveling the world, with a return visit to Barcelona. This location, Indoor Karting Barcelona, is one of the most challenging go-kart tracks in the world. I have to be honest, I would have rather been driving that photographing this event. The track looked like it would be a lot of fun to drive. (more…)
