News from Houston, Texas (MPI conference)

Meet Different from MPIThe MPI conference in Houston is called Meet Different. A lot of novelties are introduced.

1. This highly innovative conference is supported by Log On, a Meeting Support Institute member. John Dudink is providing on site support for all MPI members. The tradeshow, the networking, the program and more is available to all participants’ mobile phones. Mexico (as destination for meetings) is sponsoring the service.
2. The emerging technology lab is populated by a few Meeting Support Institute members and one Meeting Support Institute table. nTag , spot-me and Log On are present with their own table. Maarten Vanneste will man an additional table representing all the Meeting Support Institute members and distributing the up-to-date member list.
3. One example I saw is a sound proof cabin where you walk in, sit down and record your 2 minute video, by yourself. You follow simple instructions and push one button on the screen.
