Main Speaker: Steve Fisher

Steve is the creative team nerd-herder at Yellow Pencil in Canada. He leads the charge on coordinating research, business analysis, visual and interaction design, and content strategy. On the global stage he's a sought-after speaker on topics like responsive web design, UX, open source, design thinking, and web process. He also loves twitter (@hellofisher) maybe a little too much.

The HTML5 Unicorn is a completely made up phrase that the evil group organizers are using as a placeholder for what Steve is going to talk about. Steve speaks at conferences all over the world and is generally an interesting guy, so we think the unicorn will be equally interesting.
