We have now organised the London Digital Britain Unconference. Following message from Kathryn Corrick:
Thanks to the very generous assistance of the ICA, the London Digital Britain Unconference will be happening next Wednesday evening, details as follows:
Time: 6:30 PM - 9:00 PM
Date: Wednesday, May 06, 2009
Where: ICA (enter through rear door)
12 Carlton House Terrace
Westminster, Greater London SW1Y 5AH
FREE
For further details and to book please go here.
The aim of the unconferences is to develop a coherent response to the Interim Digital Britain Report.
For further details about what this is all about see this previous post by Bill Thompson.
Please also bear in mind something I noted in my initial post:
One request I'd make - the other organisers are too polite to say it, but I will - one of the things that the Digital Britain team has made clear is that they will want feedback that is "positive, concise, based in reality and sent in as soon as possible". That "based in reality" bit (that mainly means economics) puts a responsibility on us all to ensure all of us as attendees are briefed and educated on the subject before attending the unconference - ie come prepared, no numpties please, as that will dilute the hard work of others.
Sadly I can't make it, am at another conference in Nice, but will think of y'all as I sip my pastis in the Mediterranean sun
