Moses Znaimer’s ideacity 2012 is off to a roaring start at Toronto’s Koerner Hall. Over the next three days at “Canada’s Premier Meeting of the Minds,” 50 speakers will share their big ideas on how to change the world.

Rather than covering ideacity on a speaker-by-speaker basis, we’re attempting to capture it from the audience’s perspective, those who have been tweeting @ideacitynews, #ideacity.
