I guess the my colleagues where wondering what created the “yeah” that I let out when I read on my Blackberry that I am one of the 20 students who will get free passes for lift conference – thanks to the Gebert Rüf Stiftung fellowship program. Thanks to the panel (Professor William Cockayne, Nicolas Nova, Sylvie Reinhard, Bruno Giussani, Cristiana Bolli-Freitas and Jean-Daniel Sciboz) for giving me this chance.

So what is lift?

“LIFT is a series of events intended to facilitate and promote discussion about new technologies and their impact on our society. The conference happens in both Geneva (Switzerland) and Seoul (South Korea) every year, with smaller events happening all around the year.”

So I will be in Geneva from Feb 6-8 (maybe already on the 5^th) and I will cover parts of the conference on my blog. If you want to attend the conference you find all the information you need on www.liftconference.com.
