Sold-out Event Explores the Intersection of World and Web
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 3 — TechWeb and O’Reilly Media, Inc.,
co-producers of the annual Web 2.0 Summit (http://www.web2summit.com),
announced that this exclusive event has sold out for the fifth consecutive
year. The event’s program will look at how the technologies, values and
cultures of the Web can address the world’s most pressing limits. Web 2.0
Summit, which takes place November 5-7 at the Palace Hotel in San
Francisco, will bring the great minds of our time together this week as
leaders of the Internet economy turn their attention to the solutions the
Web can provide to the world at large.
With complex systems seemingly reaching their limits, it has become
apparent that the Web provides an avenue for new ways to address these
limits. The Web’s greatest inventions are, at their core, social movements.
Reflecting that growth, the program has expanded to include leaders in the
fields of healthcare, genetics, finance, global business and politics.
