Working together with the BoI, we have tried to recreate a similar atmosphere of free and open discussion in the discussions we hold in Brighton. The Battle of Ideas has been key to creating an enthusiastic and dynamic audience within our Salon. In particular, it is the participation of Brighton Salon members at the festival as both audience and speakers, that makes the Salon more than willing to promote this unique event.

"The Battle of Ideas is adrenaline for the mind. A chance for intellectual fisticuffs with some of the best-known and most stimulating thinkers in the world." Colin Blakemore, professor of neuroscience, Oxford University
