Hi ,

Have you ever heard of the 80-20 rule? It's a pretty simple one-in a
world of innovation, it's important to ask yourself the right
questions 80 % of the time while solving them should occupy just 20 % of
it! 

Like our good ol' entrepreneurial pal Henry Ford famously said: "If I
asked my customers what they wanted, they would have said a faster
horse!" and-like you probably figured-that's a very wrong question
for Henry to ask! Instead, he started asking his customers: "What are
you trying to do?" and the result of his 'this-time-right' question
was his famous Model T. Going from a horse to a car is a legendary tale
of new opportunities, fresh business models and rising technologies-a
symbol easily transferable into the present day. 

Asking all the right questions is our next panel of speakers, global
masters of answering, innovation, investing, and building something new,
who will enlighten the secrets of the emerging new economy like pros!
