The first ever AMMA Mead Conference was a great success, we sold out the tickets, and initial feedback says people enjoyed it and thought it had good subjects. We had the Conference and Industry Networking event just before the Mazer Cup International Mead Competition and Mead Mixer.
You can see the slate of speakers who came to talk below.
If you weren’t able to make the Mead Conference, you can still see what happened! Because we had all tickets sell, we had just enough budget left to hire a professional videographer to video the entire thing!
