DESCRIPTION:Iterated enrichments are common in higher category theory\, bu
 t usually take one of two forms:  iterated strict enrichments (such as the
  kind that produce the category of strict n-categories)\, and iterated enr
 ichments in which each step is performed more weakly than the last (this i
 s the idea that weak n-categories are categories weakly enriched in weak (
 n-1)-categories).  I will discuss something in between these two extremes\
 , namely iterated enrichment in a monoidal bicategory.  This machinery wil
 l then be used to discuss the Stabilisation Hypothesis of Baez and Dolan.\
 nThis is joint work with Eugenia Cheng.\n
