Dateline:  Washington D.C.

This is a ‘quick’ podcast containing the speech I gave last week.  The topic was the transition from the knowledge/information economy to the creative economy.  The audience was local political and business leaders from the Washington D.C. area.

Note:  This speech is very U.S. centric so I apologize to the non-US listeners.  The general topic and points raised can be applied to any economy.

No Killer Question this week ….. I’m squeezing this podcast in as I’m wrapping up family obligations around my daughters wedding.
