Organising 2005 SDM Conference at MIT

During the last year I've been one of the team organising the 2005 SDM Conference at MIT. This is now open for booking and whilst attendance is strictly speaking only available for alumni, students, and faculty associated with the SDM and LFM programmes at MIT / Sloan we are pretty flexible in taking bookings from other people with a serious interest in complex system design and/or management.

The conference is on Thursday 27th October and Friday 28th October at MIT. We have an exciting list of speakers including Carliss Baldwin and Stefan Tomke (both of Harvard Business School) as well as Michael Hammer (of MIT), and for the first time an SDM alumni will give a full length lecture - he is Bill Taylor of SDM'01 and he and I sweated over our theses together.

The sponsors are BAE Systems, Northrop Grumman, United Technologies, Raytheon, and Boost Energy Systems.

Hope to see you there !
