Connect with leading thinkers on new media, open government, and sustainable communities at Beyond 2010 Edmonton, an intercontinental conference taking place October 20–21, 2010. Be front and centre as Edmonton hosts several world-renowned experts, including the CEO of Empire Avenue and the CIO of the City of San Francisco.

“Beyond 2010 Edmonton is an exciting opportunity for anyone wanting to understand more about the potential of social media and information technology to enhance our lives on both a personal and professional level,” said Chris Moore, Chief Information Officer for the City of Edmonton.

Beyond 2010 Edmonton conference presenters include:

  • Jack Uldrich, best-selling author and noted business forecaster and futurist. He will discuss how the pace of technological change is accelerating even faster than most people realize, and explain why unlearning may be a critical future skill.
  • Duleepa Wijayawardhana, CEO of Empire Avenue will present the concept behind his breakthrough social media company. Empire Avenue works like a virtual stock market where the commodity being traded is people’s activity and influence on the internet.
  • One of Europe's top technology thought leaders, Peter Hinssen, will speak on the impact of technology on business life and society.

Beyond 2010 is being hosted globally online and also by Birmingham, England and Seoul, South Korea.
