Big news today: we can officially announce that LIFT is moving to Asia in 2008, adding a conference in Korea to the European event in Geneva!

We are partnering with Jaewoong Lee to bring the LIFT concept to one of the most wired, exciting and innovating country in the world: South Korea. Holding an event in Asia will allow us to continue uncovering the latest relevant trends and people from the world's most dynamic continent.

Before the main Asian event, we also decided to organize smaller events. Here is the LIFT schedule for the coming months:

• September 12, 2007: Mini-LIFT in Seoul, South Korea (read next post for more info)
• February 6-7-8, 2008: LIFT08, Geneva, Switzerland
• April 2008: Mini-LIFT in Seoul
• May or June 2008: LIFT Asia, Seoul

This is the most exciting news since the creation of the conference. This will make the conferences even more interesting and closer to the realities of the fields we want to cover. And I am not even mentioning Octopus Sashimi and the other crazy things you will discover in the land of the morning calm.
