to come up with a lot of ideas Especially at the beginning, don’t be afraid of divergence Speak freely Take everything positively What do you want to hear (receive), and what do you want to say (contribute)? In the first place, what did you expect from this class? Let’s think for a moment Lecture 14 : FinTech Ideathon — FinTech — Financial Innovation and the Internet 2019 Fall — 2020-01-17 – p.5/24
5 people)? You can make a group now! Please draw a circle in the middle of the distributed paper (big one, but small enough to draw a lot around it) We will write “broad topic” in it later At the end of the “1st round” (please remind me) Lecture 14 : FinTech Ideathon — FinTech — Financial Innovation and the Internet 2019 Fall — 2020-01-17 – p.6/24
have “dialogue” on a topic Not “discussion” or “debate” What’s the difference? Some cases involved 1,000 people in one “dialogue” I’ve facilitated one with 500 students at Keio Univ. several times It is easy, so please try it again yourselves sometime somewhere Lecture 14 : FinTech Ideathon — FinTech — Financial Innovation and the Internet 2019 Fall — 2020-01-17 – p.8/24
group of people (4 to 5 people) surround “table”, And talk about one theme (about 20 minutes) We call this “round” We write everything on paper Colorfully (Did you bring a color pen?) While eating sweets Lecture 14 : FinTech Ideathon — FinTech — Financial Innovation and the Internet 2019 Fall — 2020-01-17 – p.9/24
as “host”, And the rest are “travellers” who move to another table To start the next round Host is not MC or leader Nobody leads you to anything A table is a “safe place” where it is free to say anything on an equal footing At the next table, try to gather with people you have never spoken before But since this is such a small world, At least try not to be with people from the previous table Lecture 14 : FinTech Ideathon — FinTech — Financial Innovation and the Internet 2019 Fall — 2020-01-17 – p.10/24
beginning of the new round, “Host” will introduce what was said in the previous round, And the “travellers” will also introduce what was said at their own previous tables Lecture 14 : FinTech Ideathon — FinTech — Financial Innovation and the Internet 2019 Fall — 2020-01-17 – p.11/24
this over and over again, We will “pollinate” tables with ideas from different tables While we’re all talking about one big theme In today’s World Café, everyone will return to the first table in the 3rd round Lecture 14 : FinTech Ideathon — FinTech — Financial Innovation and the Internet 2019 Fall — 2020-01-17 – p.12/24
Focus on the “question for each round” Express youself positively Short, succinct talk (you can talk as many times as you want, but try to be concise every time) Listen to other people Put your ideas together Write or draw with a playful mind When I clap my hands, please stop talking and do the same If you’re in the middle of saying something, do finish it (graceful stop) That’s the signal for the end of the round Lecture 14 : FinTech Ideathon — FinTech — Financial Innovation and the Internet 2019 Fall — 2020-01-17 – p.13/24
sitting at “table” Keep wide space on the desk Don’t put your notebooks or laptop computers on the desk Please write your memo on paper, and share them with everyone else It’s OK to have just one computer open for research, but you can make research with your smartphones anyway Lecture 14 : FinTech Ideathon — FinTech — Financial Innovation and the Internet 2019 Fall — 2020-01-17 – p.14/24
business w/ some imaginary technology that solves challenges of blockchain, if you like Identify “host” (a person who stays at the table) “Host” is not MC or leader “Hosts” also have opportunities to learn from other tables Can you decide without using “rock-paper-scissors” or kind of “lottery”? Exercise dialogue Lecture 14 : FinTech Ideathon — FinTech — Financial Innovation and the Internet 2019 Fall — 2020-01-17 – p.15/24
current international aviation business Write them down as you think Question for this round : What’s troubling you or other people (what’s the pain) about the international aviation business?

people from the previous table Try to sit with someone you’ve never talked to before Each table should have 3 to 6 people Lecture 14 : FinTech Ideathon — FinTech — Financial Innovation and the Internet 2019 Fall — 2020-01-17 – p.17/24
