But my favorite moment to date is what happened afterward.<\/p>\n<p>I rushed out of the venue to go back to work on something else, when I happened across Casey at the traffic lights. He asked me for directions to his hotel, and since I was heading in that direction anyway, I offered to accompany him towards the city.<\/p>\n<p>We had a lovely chat about his speech, New York City, and his love for Amsterdam, before I dropped him off at his hotel. That 15-minute rideshare just made my day, and it\u2019s still one of my fondest memories of the conference.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alexander, Design Director<\/strong><br \/>Call it a luxury problem, but TNW2019 had too many afterparties.<\/p>\n<p>I remember at one point, sometime around 4 AM, a colleague and I were standing in a dark and empty subterranean techno club, surrounded by the dense fog and strobe lights. All of a sudden, time seemed to go in slow-mo, and out of the fog appeared my friend and TNW\u2019s co-founder Patrick de Laive, still wearing the plaid suit he wore on stage.<\/p>\n<p>It was like a scene from a movie, and it truly was the magical ending I needed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1362687 js-lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"801\" height=\"534\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 801px) 100vw, 801px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43-280x187.jpg 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43-405x270.jpg 405w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43-202x135.jpg 202w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43-796x531.jpg 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43-1592x1062.jpg 1592w\"\/><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1362687\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"801\" height=\"534\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43-280x187.jpg 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43-405x270.jpg 405w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43-202x135.jpg 202w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43-796x531.jpg 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/08\/The-Next-Web-2017-After-Party-Image-copyright-Dan-Taylor-dan@dantaylorphotography.com-43-1592x1062.jpg 1592w\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><strong>Adam, Innovation Project Manager<\/strong><br \/>I was a fly on the wall in the dev tent on the first day of TNW2018. Watching them manage a live server migration to fix matchmaking and scheduling bugs, whilst thousands of attendees were trying to use the app, was bloody brilliant. The move worked perfectly, and just seeing these people hard at work, without anyone noticing, was amazing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Patrick, Co-founder<\/strong><br \/>We pride ourselves on informing, inspiring, and connecting people who love tech. And that has been the case from the very start.<\/p>\n<p>Back in 2006, we had Michael Arrington as a keynote speaker. Michael is the founder of TechCrunch, which was still super small back then, but rapidly became a household name in tech.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the event, I remember him saying: \u201cI love this, I should do a TechCrunch event like this one as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Less than a year later the first edition of TechCrunch Disrupt took place in San Francisco.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sophie, Director TNW Spaces<\/strong><br \/>During TNW2014, we had a plot of land with an actual cow, divided into small squares. Kind of like a bingo card. Startups could buy those squares, and if the cow pooped on that bit of land, the startup won a prize.
