Congress Culture and Economy: The Hague 28 June 2005

Colby posted the note about this conference. You may recall that the Creative Capital conference earlier this year was intended as input for this government conference in a few weeks time. That was the reason for coming up with their "Amsterdam Agenda", although one got the impression this agenda was made before the conference started and was not sufficiently adapted to include input from participants. The creative capital conference website is still showing the same version of the agenda from a month ago -they need to do something fast to regain the momentum lost since March 21st. In the meantime, another website has gone up about a conference in The Hague on June 28th.


 

Personally (Jonathan Marks saying this bit) think it is REALLY stupid that the research backing up the conference will only be released on the day itself. So no-one will have a chance to read through the reports before the official presentations....that is mind boggling in its old fashioned approach. So I fear the congress will not be a conversation, but a series of Powerpoint presentations.....
