Institute of Design Strategy Conference 2007 at YakShaving

Strategy Conference 2007 Wow. It’s almost 2am, the night before a huge Strategy Conference that we (Institute of Design) are hosting at the Museum of Contemporary Art. I really should be sleeping right now, I know, but there is so much to be done and besides, I am excited to listen to the interesting speakers the next two days. It’s obviously too late to sign up now, but worry not. There are a number of ways you can find out what’s going on if you miss it.

There’s a conference blog, that will be moderated by John Maeda and Becky Bermont from the Media Lab @ MIT, located here.

If you go here, the speakers presentations will be uploaded and available for viewing after the conference.

Here is a link to the Podcast page, where you can catch something you missed.

I suppose I should go to bed now, so I can be in condition to blog about the interesting tidbits from this year’s conference. Hope you can join in on the fun.
