I regularly bridge the divide between digital natives and everyone who got started before the Information Age. Though I live on the bleeding edge of technology, I specialize in relating the changes I see coming back to business strategy in the present: your present.
Come ready to think, to be inspired and to be delighted. In this session, I'll showcase 10 of the most important emerging trends in digital media I'm researching, and I'll ask attendees to imagine how these trends will impact their own lives and communities. I'll bring prototypes, never-before-seen betas and lots of tactical information to chew on. If an experiential science fair got together with your favorite year-ahead predictions magazine feature, this would be their strangely endearing love child.
