It's not easy to identify and implement technologies that are a good match for audiences, content and organisational context. This session provided some inspiration and help to get started. Session: Parallel workshops

8. “We weren’t achieving anything that
way, so we nipped it in the bud and
slowed everything down. It’s one of the
reasons we introduced the tweezers.
Not because they’re more delicate than the
human touch – they aren’t – but it slows
you down and keeps you calm.”
- Chef Andoni Aduriz, Mugaritz.
