Introducing MIPtalk Studios
As many of you know, we’re gradually expanding MIPtalk to include a range of new features including video. We continue to revise the program to make sure that it suits the needs and interests of our audience.
When we first launched our show in early 2009 it took some time to “find our groove’. Listener feedback helped us improve dramatically. The same is true of our new foray into video. As you’ll see in the videos we’ve posted from the 2010 Innovation and Humanity Summit, the immediacy of video creates a different experience than what we’ve done thus far. And while we’re incredibly excited about the journey ahead, we still want to hear from you. Tell us what you think; what’s working, what’s not and what should we be doing differently? All feedback is greatly appreciated and don’t worry about sparing our feelings.
There’s much more to come so stay tuned and thanks for your continued support.

The Minute Men
As much as we enjoy doing MIPtalk we realize that it can be a daunting experience for many of you to commit to listening to an entire episode in a single sitting. In an effort to continue improving on and evolving the program we’re pleased to announced the launch of MIPtalk Minutes, a new feature that will give you a bit of an appetizer before you gorge yourself on the main course.
We’ll be introducing excerpts from a variety of episodes so you can get a better idea of what you’re getting yourself into. If you still want to go “all in” — we salute you. Just don’t forget to tip your servers.
This week we’re giving you selections from some of the episodes produced as part of our partnership with the 2010 Innovation and Humanity Summit. Here’s an overview:
