Dave Brubeck is one of the most well-known jazz pianists of all time. The classic Dave Brubeck Quartet produced the first ever million-selling jazz tune (Take Five) and toured the world many times. The Quartet's experimentation with time signatures unusual to jazz produced works like "Blue Rondo a la Turk" and "The Duke", introducing millions of enthusiastic listeners to unexplored regions of jazz. But Dave Brubeck is not one to get stuck in a rut, he has continued to develop as a musician, exploring new avenues in composition and performance. Brubeck's style ranges from refined to bombastic, reflecting his mother's attempts at classical training and his improvisational skills. He is still touring, and still releasing albums, at the age of 84. He is one of the most influential musicians of jazz history.

But as the technologies and definitions of Web 2.0 mature and get sorted out -- distributed services, AJAX, crowd-sourcing, mash-ups, etc. – the business models are starting to emerge. This CXO Forum will bring together real entrepreneurs to discuss and share real business models and how to make payroll in the Web 2.0 age. Leading the discussions will be Scott Rafer, a 7-time serial entrepreneur. Scott is currently co-founder and director at Mashery (www.mashery.com) and he has been helping Internet publishers and users develop the ‘next big thing’ since 1995. As CEO of MyBlogLog and Chairman of Winksite, Rafer helped deliver services for media publishing and discovery.

Before the 1995, Rafer headed-up the Internet products group at Kodak Hollywood, worked in investment banking at Needham & Company, and graduated from the management of technology program at the University of Pennsylvania.

Manage Innovation or Die- Scope Missing Step in Strategy Imp...
Where: SRI International
Date: 2008-03-20 07:30:00
Type:
Innovation requires moving from vision into value, insight into income, or concept into commercialization. In all cases, ideation precedes execution and strategic planners have to engage a variety of other resources within an organization for implementation to occur. Technical personnel frequently move from ideation directly into planning, and the more entrepreneurial types frequently move from ideation directly into execution, as do many other artistic and creative individuals. The missing step is frequently scoping. What is the size of this dream and how scalable is it? How much resource will be needed for the initial implementation phases which must generate concrete enough results to justify further investment. Scoping is most often practiced by those who have been burned by not having clearly articulated goals and associated scopes. Strategic planners must get buy-in from other stakeholders, especially those responsible for implementation and execution. This buy-in is greatly facilitated by the clarity effective scoping brings, because it immediately lets everyone know - can they get their arms around it or not. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN, DO AND TAKE AWAY FROM THIS SESSION AND EXERCISES * How to scope your initiatives for resource needs and scalability. * How to effectively involve stakeholders in understanding scoping issues. SPEAKER: Howard Lieberman Dean of External Affairs, Cogswell Polytechnical College Mr. Howard Lieberman a serial intrepreneur, entrepreneur, educator and master of innovation management. Lieberman has founded five companies: Interactive Visual Analysis Languages (INTERVAL), Integrated Acoustics, Escatech Media Inc., Dorado and Asonda Corp. He invented new technologies at Bose Corporation, Apple Computer and all of the companies he founded, including analog & digital audio hardware and adaptive content software architectures.
