Davos Conversation Project

Filed under: , — Sean Ammirati @ 10:04 am

Today, on a Buzz Machine post, I read about the Davos Conversation project. This is a really interesting project put together by a number of the great new & mainstream media companies (BBC, BuzzMachine, Guardian Unlimited - Comment is Free, The Huffington Post) & powered by the Daylife platform.

I spent a little time today checking it out.  So far, I’m really impressed. In his post, Jeff Jarvis, sums it up:

The WEF annual meeting has been a closed session for the world’s machers: an exclusive list of 2,000-plus heads of state and of corporations. But they have been quite serious about opening up the conversation into and out of Davos. Indeed, the theme of this year’s confab is about the shifting power equation and the tools used for the Davos Conversation page are very much a catalyst of that change. This is how I got involved in this, advising on the project and blogging there. I hope some substantive conversations begin here. We’ll see.

So far, I’m really intrigued. It should be interesting to see how / in what way this effects the Davos conversation.  You can also check out a great You Tube video Jeff did as an invitation to participate.
