I think you've already answered it.  There's a world of difference between 
"can you do this work, and we'll pay you if we're successful?" and "Come 
work for a salary. Oh sorry, ran out of money, you're not getting your last 
month's paycheck."

Ah, don't miss the opportunity to network up. You're going to be standing in 
front of a fairly powerful person who is likely looking to make some changes 
to his organization. Make sure he knows who you are, how to get in touch 
with you, and what sort of things you're interested in. It's definitely the 
way to get to where you want to be in this world.
