Last week, we held our 3rd Innovation Games® Summit at Adobe's stunningly beautiful offices in Lehi, UT. Tami Carter did a masterful job of curating the event: The speakers were thought-provoking, inspiring, and memorable; the attendees created new connections and strengthened old ones; and Conteneo learned a great deal more about how we can better serve our customers.
This post captures my perspective on some of the highlights of the summit. (We'll back this spring with more face-to-face events under the Playcamp banner. Stay tuned!)
