Last month I attended the Intersections 2011 conference at the beautiful Eden Project here in Cornwall. Intersections 2011 was a creative business summit, featuring 45 experts and thinkers speaking about innovation and creative opportunities to drive change in society and business. It was a very inspirational two days, incredibly thought provoking and came just at the right time to gather some thoughts around projects I’m involved with at the moment and also motivation for my major project about the future of design education. Particularly interesting for me was Tom Hulme’s presentation of Open IDEO and the challenges of designing for openness; and Nick Jankel’s talk about the power of improvisation and collaboration for innovation.
Video recordings of the talks are now available on DOTT Cornwall’s Vimeo channel. Check them out, they’re really inspiring.
