Cannes Lions seminar programme now set

I'm a sucker for a good seminar. The best ones should offer stimulating debate and the feeling that you can go out and change the world in a month. OK, it's rarely quite like that in reality. But this year's Cannes Lions (June 18-24 2006) has a few seminars that could be interesting. Who could resist: "How Great Ideas Work Even Harder - The Secrets Of The Most Effective Creative Campaigns Of Europe"? One I would like to drop in for is, "Singin' in the Brain", in which "delegates will be encouraged to extend their vocal chords beyond their usual noisy contributions, in an exploration of how a carefully considered strategy for sound can help to enhance any brand's appeal". By the way, it's taking place in the Debussy room. For the full Cannes Lions seminar programme, visit their site.
