Hello,

I thought list members might be interested that the REMIX Summit is about to take it's first steps outside the UK.

So if you fancy some sun (& possibly some surfing) as well as all things tech, culture and entrepreneurship then do come and join us and 2,000 creative types in Sydney, Australia on May 8th, 9th 2014 at the amazing new Carriageworks art space. Further events will be announced shortly for NYC and London.
