Conversations With Debra Amidon & Bryan Davis

Debra M. Amidon and Bryan Elliot Davis have teamed up to launch a new Web site, In the Knowledge Zones. It is the next step in the development of Knowledge Cities, communities that believe in a new perspective of development, which is based on knowledge and innovation. Zones and cities in some 40 countries are now accessible online. There you will find the foundation for global sustainability including competitive ranking reports, recommended readings and research plans. A major article on Knowledge Innovation Zones (KIZs) will appear in the October issue of Knowledge Management magazine.
