Alltech Symposium Wrapup
The 2008 Alltech International Animal Health & Nutrition Symposium is over and Alltech President, Dr. Pearse Lyons, provided the final remarks.
He summed up the key concepts that were focused on at the Symposium like the greenest generation, re-defining the industry, new technologies, new business practices, having fun and being socially responsible, supporting young people and re-defining education. Then he left a take away message which was “To have a dream, to conspire with them, to let them make that dream come true.”
The show this morning was great and you can find more from it on the Alltech Symposium Blog. Here are links to some key posts there:
Superbranding - The KFC Story
Erase Apathy
Emission Farming
To add punch to the dream concept we had one final chance to hear from opera superstar Reginald Smith, Jr. from Decatur, GA.
You can hear Dr. Lyons’ concluding remarks and Reginald’s song here:

What a blogging extravaganza this week has been. Besides all the posts on the Symposium you’ve seen here I think I posted 40 times on the Alltech Symposium Blog. I took almost 700 photos, of which over 260 made it into my photo album, did 16 YouTube video clips and I lost count of audio files that were posted (interviews/speakers).
I want to thank Dr. Pearse Lyons and all the Alltech staff for allowing me to be their Symposium blogger. I’ve learned a lot more about this company and their culture and I hope you have as well.
