You do have a point: if we made for a more inclusive (sic popularized) event,
a sponsor could offer a training course where all proceeds would go to the
conference itself. A one day training could be broken into two half days thus
permitting the person to see at least a bit of what else is going on. The
training fee could either be the admission fee itself or a small additional
charge added to the basic fee. It would make for good publicity.
