I’m blown away from this festival. I speak at a lot of conferences, I do about 3 or 4 a year, and this is the most exciting and the most professional. The standards are movie standards. So I’m blown away by it.

People from so many countries. What you may learn from them and share is wonderful.
Safdar Mustafa

It is my first time here and I learned a lot today about what is going to happen in the next 5 years. It has been really interesting to speak with a lot of people, to network, find out what they do and how we can work together in the future. There is a lot that I can take back to the Wall Street Journal.
