Hi all,

Sorry for the late response, I've been incredible busy (and had a few
personal issues) the past couple of months.

AFAIK we have funding for the plenary room. if we decide to take any
other on it'd be up to us.

I'd need to have ideas on numbers to comment on breakout rooms.

The Radison for example has another hall that's almost identical to the
main plenary one but smaller (about 40% of the size of the larger one).
Other rooms in the Radison are boardroom style rooms sitting at most 40
people.

The Intercontinental has three breakout rooms adjacent to the main hall
- but I didn't pay that much attention to them during the site survey.
