On the Tree of Life, we're connected to every species. But why should we stop there?
Cisco believes the most important connections that lie ahead of us are digital, social and physical.
Wired Money, on July 1, was the first of a new series of annual one-day summits from Wired. The aim: to showcase the most disruptive sector of the year – and in 2013, that's money, banking and finance.
But before the main event at Level 39, One Canada Square, a handful of delegates gathered to discuss the future.
On the event Main Stage and in the Startup Pitch Room, attendees were introduced to new ideas, stories and innovations. But it was off stage where some of the most important activities took place. Meeting new people, catching up with peers and extending one's network are crucial at any summit or conference.
As the event drew to a close new contacts wished each other farewell and set up potential business meetings. Industry friends promised to meet up again soon, and colleagues excitedly discussed the new concepts and companies they'd been introduced to.
Watch the highlights of the summit and hear from Ian Foddering, Cisco CTO.
