A new product or service — no matter how affordable or effective — does not necessarily lead to systemic change nor enable a sustainable business model. Visual diagramming can help to identify weak links and potential optimization areas in the supply chain, distribution methods, funding streams, and behavioral shifts required to take a social innovation to scale.
This process can help you think through what you need to do in order to get a business off the ground or create and new product.
Most important, visual storytelling can explain your Big Idea to customers and investors! Alphachimp founder Peter Durand will teach attendees how visual communication and graphic visualization can help entrepreneurs prototype and brainstorm.
This 90 minute workshop addresses these questions: why are TED Talks so engaging? What do venture capitalists and angel investors want to hear? Who is your target audience at the center of changing behavior and making an impact? What are the basic building blocks of “storytelling” and why are organizations identifying it as a core leadership skill?
Give yourself and your team the basic skills, knowledge, and confidence to create large drawings for group meetings, brainstorming sessions, community gathering, and conferences. We'll be hosted by our friends at the beautiful Nelson Andrews Leadership Center, located on Percy Priest Lake next to the Joe C. Davis YMCA Camp Widjiwagan. This place was made for people to be creative while soaking up nature.
Hosted by Andres Roemer, this annual conference in Puebla, Mexico brings artists, authors, scientists and luminaries from across the world. http://www.ciudaddelasideas.com/

An idea, a real and valuable idea always has a unique quality: danger.
The dangerous paradigm-changing ideas, which break the status quo, are what makes great minds unable to settle their reality. That's why this year we've invited those intellectuals, activists and artists who dare to think differently and to seek to innovate despite the risk.
Dare to live the intellectual adrenaline and discover why some ideas move and how dangerous ideas revolutionize the world.
