I still have a draft post in my list about how much I enjoyed Reboot 7.0 last year in Copenhagen, but now it's time for Reboot 8.0. The theme this year is Renaissance, which is interesting on several levels, and I am sure the participants will have a lot of reflections to share on this topic.

Headshift will be there in full effect, represented by Dan Dixon, Riccardo Cambiassi and myself. We would like to link up with anybody interested in working with us part of a network of associates across Europe to help serve the local needs of international clients, so please look us up if you want to talk further.

I will be speaking tomorrow, alongside Doc Searls and Euan Semple, about the nature and meaning of participation at the Samtalerne conversations day organised by the wonderful people at Socialsquare. Then, on Friday, I will join Ton Zijlstra and Martin Röll to stimulate conversation around the theme of Diversity as an engine for a European innovative culture at the main Reboot event, before giving a longer version of my participation talk on Friday afternoon.

If you don't know it yet, Reboot is the best European conference in this space thanks to its laid back but clueful organiser(s), its relaxed collaborative atmosphere and also a great venue in a lovely city.

Well done Thomas. I am sure this year will be great.
