I bring the event below to the list’s attention for three reasons: (1) The more obvious one of the description they’re using as reasons to attend the event: Will Affective Computing allow companies to influence your day-to-day behavior? Will huge databases of human emotion change buying patterns forever? (2) The more subtle one of who’s holding the event, thereby indicating the approach is gaining commercial viability.
Founded in 1990, VLAB (www.vlab.org) is the San Francisco Bay Area chapter of the MIT Enterprise Forum, an international organization with 28 chapters throughout U.S., Canada, Europe and Asia with an ecosystem of 25,000+ Bay Area influencers. (3) It’s yet another reminder that whichever side executes most with the most products in the marketplace will win, of course. This Month: Affective Computing
