Reports of keynotes, breakout sessions, plenary debate and links to media from the conference.

We are really happy with the success of our 2011 technology conference, Powering Up The Third Sector, at IBM Forum London on 14 November which received great feedback. Our facilitators kindly supplied us with their session presentations and we have summarised the main points from them, so now you can read up on those sessions you didn't get to. This page provides links to individual pages on the day's main activities - keynotes, sessions, plenary debate - and audio and visual media.

Martha Lane Fox (pictured right with Terry Stokes, Lasa CEO) gave an interesting interview to Mark Ellis of Soundelivery and there are some great photos by Laura Hastings. The variety of short films from delegates, speakers and of the general conference hubbub was caught on film by Nick Metcalf.
