Wired

Every month in the magazine and every day online, WIRED explores the ideas, innovations and people that are reshaping our world. In a time of increasingly rapid change and unlimited access to information, WIRED determines what to look for: it is the guide to what’s to come. WIRED is the only media brand whose mission is to map change – and then turn the points into a chart by which to navigate the future.

WIRED would like to invite delegates of MADE to join them on October 13-14 at their inaugural event: WIRED 2011. A compelling two-day event in London, where they bring the values of WIRED Magazine to life. From business to architecture, the environment to nanotechnology, pop culture to date-mining, their line up of international speakers will be your guides to the forces that are shaping the world of tomorrow.
