The Advisory Committee designed the meeting program based on four principle areas:

• Personalization of the learning process
• Learning content development and delivery
• Future technologies at the service of learning
• Learning: everyone, everywhere and anytime

These four areas will serve as the basis for discussions to help identify future education and technology needs and trends for next-generation educational and learning environments.

Franc Ponti, an expert in creative and innovation strategies, will be leading the creative teamwork sessions during these discussions, to help generate insightful results.
