Don’t Miss Dion Chang’s 2010 Flux Trend Review Conference

January 25th, 2010 by Nina

The 2010 Flux Trend Review Conference

The State We're InWise words from trends guru Dion Chang, editor of the Flux Trend Review:

“We are discovering that life in the 21st century is nothing we imagined it would be. We find ourselves bombarded with information 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. The onslaught is relentless. We have less time to absorb, less time to reflect and as a result, less time to make measured or informed decisions. As a matter of survival, not choice, we edit the information flung at us, and discard the information that is not within our immediate area of interest.

“The only problem is that the information we edit out (and don’t believe is relevant), is becoming increasingly interconnected, so we inadvertently block or divert our information channels. As a result, our perspective is skewed, our social interaction is affected, the generation gap becomes widener and we start to miss out on crucial business opportunities.”

Dion Chang’s 2010 Flux Trend Review Conference… powered by Blackberry will track the ripple effect of the global economic meltdown, the consumer revolution that has been sparked off as a result, the technology that has provided the tools for change, as well as the massive shift of social and business dynamics that are altering the journey ahead.

An array of top thought leaders will offer insights on topics ranging from politics, advertising and popular culture to cutting edge developments in technology.

In a nutshell, business and lifestyle trends, which affect the way in which we live, work and do business in the 21st century.
