2Gether08

I spent a very enjoyable couple of hours on Wednesday in the company of Steve Moore, David Wilcox, Paul Birch, Graham Brown-Martin and Safiya Ahmed to learn more about the upcoming 2gether08 festival.

As I said to Steve and David on Wednesday, 2gether is one of those ideas that when you hear about it you think, “Wow, so simple. Why hasn’t it been done before?”. But, really it is a great idea - get the technology guys together with people who have ideas to make a positive social impact and see what happens in the gaps. Maybe, just maybe, the technology can help the social initiative?

Obviously, the social angle of 2gether08 slots right in with the aims of i4SM. That’s why we’re planning to be there in some capacity. This has yet to be finalised, but we’re definitely excited by the opportunity to talk about i4SM with a wider audience who will no doubt have some great thoughts on how i4SM can be relevant to them.

I’ll keep you posted on what we’ll be up to down there. For now, you can listen to yours truly…captured by David Wilcox talking about i4SM. Mark July 2nd and 3rd in your diaries - if you are able to make it Rochelle School, Shoreditch on those days, I’m sure you’ll find it a stimulating diversion from your normal Wednesday and Thursday!

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend. I’ll be in France that week.
