This past few weeks, I've met some great smaller consultancies delivering great thought leadership around Web 2.0 and next generation partnerships. Friday I met with the guys at The Rights Marketing Company who go about "unlocking innovation" and last week spent time with the CEO at Kaizo who have done great work on communication with the likes of Proctor & Gamble amongst others. Not forgetting the wonderful John Caswell at Group Partners who has kindly set up a Wiki for me and the team to work on the Developing the Future project.
Tuesday I'm hoping to get to the UK Technology Innovation and Growth Forum or at the very least will be going along to the awards dinner as a guest of UKTI who are doing great work with their Global Entrepreneur Program.
Another event happening this week (but alas I'm not attending in person) is the Microsoft Global Services India showcase. Saying that I'm seriously thinking of getting some sunshine in Dubai over Easter and catching up with the MS folks out there. Also hoping to get to South Africa to help get the next Trestle Foundation project off the ground. Fingers crossed we get some Govt sponsorship for that too. Will have to work on them over dinner on Tuesday....
