Beginning in Minneapolis on Thursday 8 November 2007, Aurora WDC will begin sponsoring a traveling series of one-day symposia called, "Intelligence 2.0 - Rethinking Intelligence in Business".

Envisioned as much a "conversation" as a collection of thought leadership presentations, like any good conversation, each will come and go with a unique dialog on the issues surrounding the practice of intelligence in the modern business enterprise.

So, if you can't make it to Minneapolis, we're planning four (4) more in 2008 for you to choose from and have high hopes for a vibrant online discussion to compliment and guide the live events.
