Content Strategy Forum 2010: Mission Accomplished!
Thank you to everyone who attended Content Strategy Forum 2010 in Paris last month and for helping to make the event such a success. 170 attendees, 18 nationalities, 17 speakers, 1 panel discussion, 1 dinner cruise, 1 cocktail, 1 volcano… #csforum10 rocked the world!
Content Strategy Forum 2010 was billed as a ground-breaking event. Volcanic eruptions aside, we hope that everyone who attended found the conference worthwhile and engaging and left with the feeling that content strategy represents a fabulous opportunity for “content sensitive” business and tech savvy people like us. Most of all, we hope that you were able to find your way home safely and that the conference armed you with new ideas, key insights, and a spark of enthusiasm that will encourage you to keep “banging the big drums” for content strategy.
The conversation continues! Stay tuned for conference updates and follow-up via Twitter:

Thank you to our authors and publishers, and to all our conference sponsors for their generous support. Thanks also to all our speakers, most of whom traveled to Paris at their own expense to share their vision, perspective, and knowledge.
Finally, thank you to the small but dedicated team of volunteers who worked selflessly over the last year and on the day to bring you what we hope will come to be viewed as a milestone event for the discipline of content strategy. The STC Board has honored our efforts with an STC Pacesetter Award, presented jointly to the STC France and TransAlpine Chapters at this year’s STC Summit in Dallas.
Our aim with Content Strategy Forum 2010 was to create a catalyst for further development and discussion, especially in Europe. If the enthusiastic exchanges already underway in the Content Strategy Google Group to define the focus and scope for future content strategy events and collaborations in Europe are anything to go by, then we will have succeeded in our mission. Join the conversation and share your thoughts on how to keep the momentum going:
