"Creativity's kind of the next frontier..."

Yesterday the Iowa Creativity Summit released this video. It's 6 minutes long. We pulled out some quotes in case you didn't want to waste your time.

"If we can discourage the discouragement, if we can encourage creativity, I'll give you an example, we have people, entrepreneurs in Des Moines, who take the headlines like every week. And if you think about it, these gentlemen and these women are one person, that are taking the headlines. One person. They form a company but it's one person."

"Yet we have 2,500 at some of these bigger businesses, or some cases 10,000 people, and nothing creative has popped out of these business in the last 10 years. And if you really start to think about it: that's impossible."

"My take on 'stay foolish' is: the truly good ideas are good ideas because no one else is doing it. Why is no one else doing it? Because they look foolish."

Q: "What is Matthew May going to bring to Des Moines?"
A: "In part I don't know. Because it's a little of a surprise we're getting these workshops that are back to back. We know it's going to be hands-on, we know it's not going to be lecture. But he does want to surprise us a bit. What we do know is it's going to be hands on, we're going to use material at our tables."

Are you more convinced to go now? Less? Let us know. Early registration ($35 instead of $50) ends of Feb 27th
