For two days in October, followers of our Thinc Iowa conference gorged on a smorgasbord of presentations about entrepreneurship and innovation.
Then, throughout the month of November, people had a chance to replenish their supply of lessons through the Thinc Iowa 2012 Video Series.
Now, nearing the midpoint of December, the cupboard has been bare for some time. But not any more. Today, we bring you a feast, in the form of our Thinc Iowa 2012 video playlist.

A compilation of footage captured Oct. 10 and 11 in Des Moines at our second Thinc Iowa conference, the playlist features 17 videos — an introduction from emcee Antonio Neves, a question-and-answer session with four Thinc Iowa speakers and 15 keynote-style talks — and lasts almost 10 hours.
So, without further ado, here’s an overview of the video playlist lineup, along with links to a recaps of the talks.
