"Went to a brilliant event last night - This Happened. Short talks about interesting Intereaction Design stuff presented with a refreshing openness you don't get in marketing and adland, where case studies are normally presented as inevitable and insightful marches to success" - russell davies (05/03/08)

"Yesterday I was at This Happened with a couple of creative technologists. If I’m going to a lot of conferences in London, I haven’t been enjoying a conference like this one for a while. I can’t really tell where it comes from yet but I guess it is the fact that they focus on stories behind projects that did happen and as it is interaction design projects, the audience tends to include more different backgrounds (architect, designer, developer, artist)." - Vincent Thome (05/03/08)

"How come there’s nothing in London that fills the huge gap between Dorkbot (grass roots, tending towards techie, free, unpretentious, unpredictable) and Pecha Kucha (pay 12 quid to get in and then swank about drinking with artists and designers all night)? ...And then this happened, erm, happened!" - Chris Hand (23/04/07)

"Some months ago I also found out another kind of format for this kind of events that I think would also make a great addition. This happened was an event dedicated to interaction design. But what caught my eye was their speakers guidelines where I found two important characteristics ..... This is really import because more interesting than seeing a pretty result is to see all the mistakes done, all the decision made and the path it took to reach it. Integrate this thoughts into an event with open presentation slots for everyone and would have a quick and small event, but really rich in terms of content and information sharing" - Sérgio Santos (26/05/07)
