I’ve been invited to put my best 5 minutes forward for this thinkfest put on by the NSW KM Forum:
Conferences have played a major role in professional development for many of us. However the traditional conference format of presentations has been challenged from a variety of angles. Firstly, there has been a proliferation of “unconferences” – from tech-focused BarCamps, World Cafes to communal Open Spaceevents. Secondly, communication technologies such as online community tools, web conferencing, virtual worlds and microblogs offer new ways of interacting beyond face-to-face. Finally, rising travel costs and declining discretionary spend are impacting the economics of meeting. What does this all mean for the future?
This session will be a mix of short, sharp blast of conference future from our presenters below and then discussion & debate by participants.
