Self-Described Trade Show From Hell
From InfoWorld:
Dr. Eric Rasmussen checks out disasters almost as frequently as the rest of us check out Hollywood blockbusters....
So when Rasmussen set out to plan Strong Angel III, a large-scale exercise in “integrated disaster response” held in San Diego last week, he knew how to make it authentic: from the bombed-out building where the event was staged to the rescue workers’ proximity to San Diego’s airport, where the roar of flying jets made communication difficult (a detail he borrowed from his experience after the 2004 tsunami in Banda Aceh, Indonesia).
Strong Angel III, which imagined trade show attendees caught up in the fallout of a deadly disease outbreak and infrastructure-crippling cyberattack, attracted interest from across the tech sector.
Deadly disease? Cyberattack? Interex was never like this.
