“Encouraging Serendipity” may sound like another sappy rom com, but it’s in fact the mantra of the World Technology Network, which will convene top science, business and technology geeks in Manhattan November 30 to December 1 for the 2010 World Technology Summit & 
Awards.
Bring together the world’s elite innovators, the Summit concept goes, have them toast one another's achievements, and see what bubbles up as they unleash their imaginations on bleeding-edge technologies – and how they can solve the planet’s problems. The event is also a recruiting ground for new WTN members, who require their peers’ nod to join this elite virtual think tank.
