Peter Giblin
Peter is passionate about creating environments and formats that help participants get the most out of an event. Part of that is choosing the right venue. Peter has staged events in the Natural Historical Society and the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, New York, the Villa di Medici in Rome, the Townhall in Stockholm and, most recently, the Emirates football stadium in London (M-Football), to name a few.
Peter is interested in the convergence of art, science and technology, particularly the impact of technology and mobile on society. He also believes in the importance of bringing together leading thinkers from different disciplines to develop new ideas, businesses and methodologies, in a stimulating but informal atmosphere.
Peter was involved in producing YPO events at a young age. He went on to produce independent films (including a student-Oscar winning short), before developing and co-producing the Rising Tide Summit series with Silicon Alley Reporter (likened to “a TED of the East Coast” by the New York Times), the DisinfoCon2000 as well as LOHAS 8 sustainability conference, the Caboom design festival and Invisible College (prompting the LA Times to call him a “pop culture solutions provider) in Los Angeles. He also spent 4 years as Head of Business Development at mobile commerce start-up, mshopper. Peter has a B.A. from Yale.

Amish Patel is an engineering program manager for the Windows Touch team within the Human Interfaces group at Microsoft working on touch optimized user experiences. Amish is currently working on a set of thoughts he calls “the touch principles”, which are a set of design guidelines that modern developers and designers should be considering as we move from conventional mouse and keyboard GUI toward touch first user interfaces. In addition to this research, he is driving his team toward a vision of every Windows computer in the world to be mobile, connected and touchable!
Background: Amish is a proud Canadian, born and raised in Toronto and attended the University of Toronto’s computer science and economics departments. Amish started his time at Microsoft analyzing usage patterns and designing interactions for pen based computing on the Tablet PC platform. Amish later joined the Windows Touch team to deliver the first multi-touch Windows OS in Windows7.
Amish is excited about the rise of touch based computing within an ‘always connected’ world, which in his eyes marks the shift toward more natural and intuitive ways in which humans can better learn, play, share!

From mid 2004 Marc has been CEO of Handmade Mobile, building and launching the Flirtomatic service and raising three rounds of investment (seed capital and two VC rounds).
He set up and run four companies in the last 17 years, all (reasonably) successful in innovation in emergent media. His background is in media and communications. He foresaw (a bit) the digital explosion of the 1990’s and set up CHBi, one of the first digital solutions companies in the UK, where among other achievements he lead the team that invented and developed Yell for Yellow Pages.
CHBi was successfully sold to become Razorfish London and he went on to lead and re-organise the 2000 person skills networks of Razorfish as part of the global leadership team.
From 2001 he was one of the founders of Fjord, a digital product and service innovation consultancy based in London (and now Berlin and Helsinki), working on strategic mobile projects for Nokia, Orange and the UK government.
In 2005 he had a book (”Distraction”) published, on the effect of digital communications on society. Most recently Flirtomatic has been the top company in the Library House Essential Mediatech 2008 list. Marc has 5 children, and likes running, cycling, wine, food, books, mountains. Sometimes together.
