In addition to blogging and vlogging at the event I am looking to set up interviews with corporate innovators for a new feature called “Innovation Interviews” that will launch on our revised site in April.

If you will be attending the conference, occupy an innovation role within a company and would be willing to be interviewed, please contact me to set up an interview.

I look forward to seeing you there!
