Final hours of Super Early Bird rate for PG Connects San Francisco 2017

Did you know the Golden Gate Bridge has enough steel cabling to wrap around the Equator three times over?

It's a magnificent structure, one that pictures alone don't do justice to. Because only in person do you truly appreciate the scale of this 20th century engineering marvel in all its 887,000 tons splendour.

If you've not had the pleasure, now's your chance: simply combine business with a touch of tourism by attending PGC San Francisco on June 27th to 28th.

We may not match the literal weight of the city's mighty bridge, but we come heavily laden with industry opportunity (see the breakdown below).

And right now you can join us at our Super Early Bird rate before it ends later this week - tomorrow at 10am BST in fact. (The saving will pay for a tour bus ride across the bridge and an ice cream stop in Sausalito.)
