Type 5. The fifteen (15!) distinctive (annoying?) types you meet at every (every!) conference

And recognize yourself

Type 5: The Groupie

Mission: Hug the keynote speaker

At literally every conference, he is there; the groupie. Okay, let's call him the superfan, that sounds a bit friendlier. The superfan is an admirer of at least one of the speakers. The superfan displays his awe for the speaker in question extensively on social media channels, of course with the @name of the speaker and the hashtag – # – of the conference. And photos, of course. Lots of photos, shoulder to shoulder with the hero.

No, the writer of this piece would never do such a thing.
