Kurzweil awarded 'Best Individual Presentation' by Conferenza

KurzweilAI.net, Jan. 13, 2003

Conferenza gave Ray Kurzweil its "Best Individual Presentation" award for his Pop!Tech presentation in Conferenza's Best and Worst Conference Awards for 2002.

Kurzweil "argued persuasively at Pop!Tech that if you live to the year 2010, biology and technology innovations could carry you on until 2810," according to a Conferenza announcement today.

Pop!Tech tied for Best Conference with IDG's DemoMobile. The Best Host award went to John Gallant for IDG's Vortex conference ("a non-confrontational style that often gets executives to reveal more than they intend"). Best Producer was VentureWire's Richard A. Shaffer, "indicating early trends in private investment."

Conferenza Premium Reports offer news, commentary and analysis on technology's top tier executive events.
