Brian Sullivan is the @BigDesign@twitter.com conference founder. He believes speakers at his conferences shld work for free & pay for their own travel & accommodation. The early bird rate for his next conference is $249. Workshops - for which the speaker won't be paid - sold separately. /1
@shiro Yes, it makes it a lobbyist event, but as soon as they not lie about it, good enough I guess.

@bidetaggle Probably. But that means that he’ll only give a stage to a certain kind of people - those who can afford traveling to speak for free. Which means his conference will be super commercial (people sent by companies who pay for travel) and non-diverse. People should know that and not invest time/energy in his event.
