They just announced the dates for 2018, 11/5-11/7.
I wonder why Trimble always has their biennial conferences over election day? I remember being there when Obama was elected, and I vividly remember exactly where I was (in a steakhouse) when my daughter called me to say that Trump won, something I could not believe. BTW-not a political statement, just did not expect that at all.
I have not done the absentee ballot thing, so I have missed voting in a number of elections to attend the conference. Just wondering why they do that.
Only thing I can figure is it's a slow weekend for Vegas and they get a better rate. We have early voting in LA so it's never been a problem for me. I didn't attend in 2016, that was the first one I missed since I started going. Hoping to make it back next year.
Their dates have been around that time for a while. They have to squeeze between ACEC and Autodesk University.
Not to mention that it is truly an international conference.
Why don't you vote absentee? I've never missed an election for Dimensions. It was painlessly easy in California, Texas, and Michigan.
