The european network for people-centered design of interactive technologies

LIFT 2007.

The 2007 edition of the LIFT conference will be held on February 8th and 9th in Geneva, Switzerland.

Lift 07.

Last year’s wonderful modular program allowed participants to go wide or deep, and interspersed the various talks with opportunities to socialize with interesting people and leading thinkers from various disciplines.
More than 350 people gathered for 2 days from more than 20 countries to brainstorm with the likes of Régine Debatty, Cory Doctorow, Robert Scoble, Euan Semple, Bruce Sterling, Stefana Broadbent, Bruno Giussani, Jeffrey Huang, Emmanuelle Richard, Beth Krasna, Matt Jones, Hugh Macleod, Xavier Comtesse, Marc Laperrouza, David Galipeau and Anina.

“LIFT: a conference about the challenges and opportunities of technology in our society.

LIFT is about teaming talented observers, explorers, and builders with people whose work depends on understanding current challenges and creative solutions presented by emerging technologies.
Attendees will face cutting edge business models, bold predictions, radical thinking, ideas to inject into their own part of the planet.
LIFT has a simple goal: connect people who are passionate about new applications of technology and propel their conversations into the broader world to improve life and work.”

I’ve heard through the digital grapevine that the organizers have a few suprises up their collective sleeve for next year, so check the conference blog every now and then if you’re planning on attending.
