Preparing for the Innovation Edge
It's a little over 18 hours away from the start of our flagship conference at the Royal Festival Hall. The organisation is buzzing, and there's a hive of activity going on making sure that the event is both an interesting, enjoyable and useful experience.
As Roland has already mentioned, we will be trying to capture a flavour of the day both on twitter and on this blog. If you are blogging on the day, drop me a line or tag your content 'innovationedge' and I'll add you to the list.
I'm particularly curious to see how this kind of micro-blogging and backchannel will pan out with such a mixed audience. Will it be just the social networks crowd participating? Or will more of the policy and investments audience join in? What lessons can we draw from this form of rapid-fire, informal, communications - and how does it relate to our other channels and methods of communication - will blogging reduce or magnify the impact of the reportage that will follow? Are the blogerati looking forward to the same things I am?
I guess we all find out tomorrow....
