The HUB Milano – opening soon
The Hub is a network of office spaces distributed in 12 cities over 4 continents and is
a social enterprise with the ambition to inspire and support imaginative and enterprising initiatives for a better world (see the full about here).
I’ve recently had a nice chinese lunch with the founders of the Milan chapter with the personal aim to visit the place (I saw the photos online and the building was marvellous, I’m seriously considering to pay for a basic subscription in order to have a place to hang around in my creative moments) and to know the bright minded people who founded such an idea.
I also felt it would be interesting to create a link between Frontiers of Interaction – which bases its own existence on innovation – and The Hub – which exists for innovative people. And I’m happy we ended the lunch with a very cool idea of collaboration that’s going to be unveiled in the forthcoming weeks.
UX Conference in Lugano
Note: all outgoing links will lead you to pages in Italian.
The UX Conference claims itself as “The first conference on the user experience with a look at the innovation in strategy & design, mobility, playability and agile methods”.
You might want to buy a ticket here using my personal discount code (I’ve checked with Luca, and he’s fine with this 
) which gaves you access to a 10% discount (on the early bid price too):

As strange as it could be (it’s a small World) 3 of the 4 Keynoters are close friends; you might also want to join them as a speaker submitting a paper for review.
Frontiers and the other European conferences
I’ve first met Laurent Haug, Lift Conference founder and CEO, back in 2006 for his conference first edition (my speech was about an assistive technology I developed and patented called Flash Voice); since then Lift growed to become one of the top 5 innovation related conferences world wide (Lift Asia just finished and they have a Lift France edition too).
I’ve talked Laurent about Frontiers of Interaction and how cool was this year edition (hey, all the speeches are available, for free, in videos!) and his was so kind to ask me to guest blog on their site. You can find it here.
Moving a little bit norther you should take a look at PICNIC conference, where our friend Gianfranco Chicco is head of Marketing, which is taking place tomorrow in Amsterdam (my pal Leeander will be there).
I’m really looking forward to host both Lift and PICNIC organizers next year at Frontiers10.
