A half-day event to explore new cost-effective ways of approaching product development, service delivery using open platforms, open data and open development.

Being-Open ‘11 is a half-day conference & masterclass that will provide digital product executives, entrepreneurs and investors across the private & public sector with a unique opportunity to connect and share ideas, insight and know how in relation to making the most of the rapidly emerging ‘open’ ecology.

In an afternoon packed with insightful and instructive case-studies delivered by digital media specialists and clients at the helm of open platforms, open data and open development you’ll learn how to create cost-effective services using open components.

How open development and open source are changing the way we build digital services and dramatically reducing costs and development time.

How open platforms are being used to create a new generation of services & tools and associated business models.

How open data (from public and private sector organisations and individuals) is enabling new possibilities and drastically reducing cost and complexity of delivering innovative digital services.
