I realized today that I've never mentioned on my blog that I'm available and interested in speaking engagements, either in person or virtually. Among the topics I'm particularly qualified to speak on:
- Immersive Learning: The potential and reality of education and virtual worlds
- The Activist Avatar: the Use of virtual worlds to promote non-profit causes and campaigns
- e-Democracy: How "new media" and virtual world technology is changing the nature of democracy
I have addressed a range of audiences and events, from speaking to 250 non-governmental organizations in the UN General Assembly, to moderating a virtual discussion between the prosecutor for the International Criminal Court and the former Canadian Foreign Minister, and addressing tech companies and non-profits at Cisco Systems HQ earlier this year.
I'm equally happy to appear at your event either in the flesh or virtually. I've organized and spoken at a number of mixed-reality events, and they are always a lot of fun.
If you would like talk to me about how I might participate at your particular conference or symposium, please contact me at rik@rikomatic.com.
