Build gears up for final event in 2013

Since its inception in 2009, Build has gained a reputation as a great event where web industry folk can meet, share ideas and offer inspiration to others. The week-long festival has grown to encompass a conference and workshops, along with live events, meet-ups, film screenings and parties. With all that in mind, it was therefore surprising to hear that 2013 will draw a line on Build, with the teaser website simply stating "one more time".

We spoke to Build organiser (and publisher of The Manual) Andy McMillan about what we can expect from the last ever Build, and why he felt it was time to retire the festival.
