ILMC 23 Registration Brochure

Institute of Lost Mythical Continents

Dear Fellow Adventurers, Legend tells of a lost world cut off from civilization by the towering cliff face of a forgotten plateau and the impenetrable jungle that surrounds it. Forever shrouded from curious eyes by a veil of mist, it is a land where for aeons time has stood still, where the once great edifices of long lost civilizations now lie in ruins and where savage prehist oric beasts still roam, feeding on each other for their survival. A mysterious place where fortune s are to be won and lives lost...

In March 2011, the ILMC is launching its 23rd major expedition – a voyage of discovery to explore and chart this realm beyond the imagination. You are invited to join some 1,000 of the most celebrated and intrepid adventurers on the planet who have been hand-picked for this perilous undertaking. Should you dare to accept the challe nge you’ll find all the information and evidence I’ve collected so far within the pages of this scrapb ook, the magazine that accompanies it and online at www.ilmc.com. As plans unfold, further details will be sent to you in our eNews and the next edition of IQ. A word of caution, however: supplies and space for the trip are very limited, and we cannot guarantee a place in the expeditionary team to lateco mers – no matter how intrepid and celebrated they are – so you are strongly urged to beat a path right away to the registration pages on our website and confirm your place before time forget s that too...

Undiscovered Species?

Many years ago, when the ILMC was but a smallish affair, meeting people was easy: you simply nudged the person next to you or across the table and said hello. But as the conference has grown, people found it harder and harder to meet, so the ILMC Networking Scheme was introduced.

Members of the scheme are issued a code to access a password-protected section of the ILMC 23 website where they can find the contact details of other members that have signed up for the scheme. To take part, please tick the relevant box when registering or contact registration@ilmc.com.

Unless you ask us not to, certain details about every registered delegate will be listed on the ILMC website (name, company, country and sector) but the networking scheme is the only way for delegates to access each others’ contact details in advance. As usual, delegates’ details will be printed in the Globetrotters Guide, which delegates will receive on arrival at the conference.

On Friday 11 March, immediately after the Talking Shop session, the bar will be open in the Lower Ground Floor Lobby (just outside the main conference room) and we suggest that this is an ideal place for the networkers in our midst to meet up.
