Learn

To that end, the 2011 conference will address eight critical issues facing society today: Genomics: Game Changer for Health Care, Energy: Strategies for the Future, Breakthrough Ideas for Education, Social Entrepreneurs for Success, Women and Leadership, The Arts: New Answers in Challenging Times, Understanding Islam. Forty world-class thought leaders, experts in these areas, will speak on relevant topics and present one or two actionable ideas that could lead to solutions. Nationally recognized media personalities will be invited to moderate each of these sessions and summarize the presentations to highlight possible outcomes.

Act
