Add Portmeirion, North Wales to the long list of peripheral hideaways to make a name in global affairs. Annie Lennox, Niall Ferguson and Alain de Botton are just a few of the over 20 luminaries signed on to make a little noise at the 2nd Annual Editorial Intelligence Names Not Numbers thought symposium taking place 26 - 28 February in the quiet Welsh town.
Magnates across the media, academic and corporate sectors will use the conciliatory setting to discuss the issues of Trust, Privacy and Personalisation within the context of globalisation.

Described by historian Simon Schama who will headline again in 2011 as ‘a meeting of minds’, the Names Not Numbers symposium is produced by the Media, Analysis & Networking company Editorial Intelligence in association with partners who this year are: BBC Global News and BBC World Service; Cass Business School; Edelman; Financial Times; Jaguar Land Rover and Vodafone. Editorial Intelligence (ei) is a new kind of media business which runs an agenda-setting opinion former network
