Lodestar's Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer, Harun Asad, Attending the Annual FEI Conference in Boston

Boston, MA, April 25, 2011 – Lodestar's Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer, Harun Asad, will be attending the annual Front End of Innovation conference in Boston. The event will be held at the Seaport World Trade Center on May 16-18th. 

Each year, FEI celebrates the power of collective intelligence — creating an environment that empowers innovators to connect meaningfully through purposeful conversations based on content. Where 2009 and 2010 conferences were about experiences and collaboration, 2011 is focused on the outcomes derived from the experiences: Using the experiences as way to get to the underlying value you need to achieve.

There will be 19 keynote speakers and a number of seasoned contributors, including Jim Stikeleather, Chief Innovation Officer at Dell, Sheri Mccoy Vice Chairman, Executive Committee at Johnson & Johnson, and Chris Theon, Managing Director of Global Open Innovation at Procter & Gamble. 

The conference itself, while providing an invaluable array of insight and talent, will allow each attendee to customize his/her own agenda. Guests choose between four Value Rooms and eight Learning Formats to create a unique experience for each participant.
