Session Description

As our community gathers, we’ll begin to explore the theme of Fault Lines: Creating Common Ground and how social entrepreneurs can navigate this landscape so marked by division while working towards peace, prosperity, and equality. We will hear from innovators, activists, and business leaders to lay the foundation for a weeklong conversation around repairing the rifts that hinder social progress.
