The work continues at a table of twelve and in a circle that meets for three months. Curators compose both.
The evening’s host and speakers. Guests: business operators, researchers, investors.
A closed conversation before the public part. Guests ask the questions you cannot ask from the floor.
Speakers, the builders who demoed, programme curators.
A debrief while it is still warm: what we heard and what to do on Monday. Most circles start here.
Seats are not allocated in order of application. Curators compose the table so that different kinds of experience argue with each other.
Curators reply no later than ten days before the encounter.
A working group with a convenor and a programme researcher. The output is a memo that enters the Signals Ledger and may be published.
After an encounter any participant may propose a circle: one topic, one question worth working through.
Curators assemble 6-8 people so that each circle holds a practitioner, a researcher and a sceptic.
Three months, meeting every two weeks. A programme researcher supplies sources and fact-checking.
The output is a working memo: what we learned, what we verified, what we recommend. It enters the Signals Ledger.
Name one of the season’s topics or propose your own.
