Symposium 2008

[in...@ilbs.org]

As some of you know already, after the success of the Better Business
Symposium earlier this year, we wish to organize a larger scale
symposium in 2008.

We have been offered the use of the one-time monastery
Heiligenkreuztal from the 4th - 6th April. This is a fantastic venue
and offers low cost accomodation and food in a reflective and
beautiful setting. The web site is:
http://www.historisches-wuerttemberg.de/kloester/kreuztal/kreuztal.htm.

The idea of the symposium is to offer workshops, talks, art, music,
exhibition and socialising in a relaxed atmosphere in English and
German. A number of people, including from abroad, have already agreed
to contribute an item or event and you are invited here to add your
ideas and comments.

The symposium should be open to adults of all ages and their families
who are able to subscribe to the principles of ILBS and I hope it will
become a regular international event.

These are some of the following points which need urgent
clarification:

1. We need a name for the symposium
2. The cost is going to be around 250 Euros. What should we charge or
should we raise funds, etc.?
3. Who is willing to be part of an organising team?
4. Would somebody please take the responsibility for echoing this
discussion in German also to save me having to translate and so we can
keep up a dual language discussion?

Let's make this happen!
