No, I'm not confusing the two... I'm differentiating between a
business conference and a recreational conference.  Technical
conferences (for the purposes of this illustration) fall under
business conference because you attend them to help you in your
work (most people do, at least, yes, there are a few that go
just to improve themselves, but that is by far the minority).
This is as opposed to Star Trek conventions and the like which
are usually held on weekends.
