How many taxi companies could have made their own iPhone apps but didn’t? Everyone knows we need to innovate or perish, but what does that really mean? How do you know if Silicon Valley is going to come after your industry? Can we learn to innovate faster than our competitors? If computers can do the job of a truck driver, what about a factory worker, or a chef, or a doctor, or you?

Working with them every day at his lab, his team has taken on problems ranging from hurricane suppression to brain surgery & disease eradication to nuclear energy.
A futurist, inventor, and notorious hacker with a unique view into breaking and building new technologies, Pablos works on invention projects that assimilate new technologies—making wild ideas a bit more practical and vice versa. He helped create the world’s smallest PC; 3D printers at Makerbot; spaceships with Jeff Bezos; mosquito-zapping lasers with Bill Gates; artificial intelligence agent systems; and the Hackerbot, a Wi-Fi-seeking robot. He is also an advisor to the biggest crowdfunding campaign in history, raising US$27 million in 30 days for 3D printer Glowforge.

New solutions for real-time translation are revolutionizing global and regional meetings. Meeting planners can now have translations into many languages for less than the price of hiring even a single human interpreter. The large reach and potential reward of interpretation is much more attainable.

In order to learn how to better engage and enlarge your audience, this session will include solution demonstrations, case study examples, and an interview with meeting planner Lisa Busby, who helped a global corporation take their annual sales kickoff virtual, with machine interpretation.
Meeting Professionals will learn how to:
1) Attract and excite new attendees who care about transcription and translation
2) Adapt meeting designs to maximize the benefits of real-time translation
3) Present the pros and cons of new translation solutions to clients for informed plans

Before 2020, meetings and conferences were in-person events. Yes, there were a few you could “watch” after the fact, but nothing compared to the in-person experience. This is still true however, with COVID still ever-present, our push to get back to the way it was is coming up short. We need to be ready for the future of meetings and conferences. That means hybrids. Hybrids will allow companies and organizations to plan in-person meetings providing a viable option for those that are not comfortable traveling to the meeting destination. Meetings and conferences will need to become a dynamic experience for those on-site and those tuning in remotely. For planners, this adds many new levels of complexity to your planning process. Can my standard meeting format work? What needs to change? What should I watch out for? What are the secrets to a successful hybrid meeting? What are the watch-outs? Join us as we explore and contrast the traditional, old-school hybrid (pre-COVID) and what must happen now to keep everyone engaged and offer a unique and valuable experience to all your attendees regardless of location. This session is specifically designed for meeting planners who plan corporate meetings and conferences and foresee hybrids in the future of their meeting structure. This session will provide tips, general information, and examples of how you can take your meetings and conferences hybrid.
Learner Outcomes:
1. Understand the basics of hybrid meetings
2. Understand the fundamentals of planning a hybrid meeting
3. Learn best practices
