For us there’s always a good reason to be in Munich and it usually starts with the letter ‘b’ and ends (in several languages) with the letter ‘r’ but on Monday and Tuesday, 1st and 2nd October there are two other reasons to be in the city (okay, one other reason, cos’ reason #2 is Oktoberfest which is of course all about bier)
Whilst it’s early days for insideAR 2012 being held at the Eisbach Studios, Berduxstraße 30, 81245 München (we believe that this is its second year) this event looks like it could be something that could really grow and be of real interest to the industry.
