I haven't seen this mentioned in so far - contributing to the local community where the event takes place.

People working on IT jobs tend to be on a privileged position, and this hotel hilton place shows an enormous amount of wealth vs the just outside of it.
We don't even have to go far, just a walk behind to the nearest metro station we can see a few homeless people.

Some suggestions/incentives on things we can do to not leave a bad mark here would be nice.

Otherwise feels we are only perpetuating the cycle of "expats ruin city by means of gentrification". We do not need to maintain the status quo, and staying here gives an uneasy feeling of contributing to it.

Don't want to be associated with the same non-conference attending people as there are here. They already look at us as if we are bothering them anyway.
