This was my first event of any kind and I’m surprised how well it went on just with volunteer organization. At the same time, I felt we didn’t really connect with the Japanese community nor made enough effort to get more Japanese people at the venue. This is not to put a blame on anyone at all - you all did amazing work! 

I found the 1-1 conversations and group chats to be most valuable despite some great talks as well. 

Would have been cool to focus on specific topics and have group discussions of some sort to kick around ideas to overcome various challenges. Overall fantastic event!
