Jon: The Bett show is one of my favorite places to share. They bring in dynamic speakers

who share best practice and emerging trends in educational technology. The quality and

quantity of vendors is astounding. It is a must for all to attend.

Aaron: It is always a pleasure to present at an event as well run as Bett. The quality and

quantity of the presentations and vendors never ceases to amaze me, and the connections I

make there each year are irreplaceable. Anyone involved with educational ICT who can get to

London for this event should do so.

The Bett Latin American Leadership Summit was a perfect chance for me to think about

how we can develop international education and I think we have to work together toimprove education overall. I enjoyed exchanging thoughts and having conversations with

my peers and fellow educators around the world at the summit.
