We share what we find thought provoking. Leading thinkers in creativity, technology, entrepreneurship and civic engagement inspire new ideas, bring us together with the region’s thriving business, legal, tech and creative communities and spark thoughtful conversations on what it means to work and think more creatively.
Partnering with the Chamber and its vast member community, we convene conversations with global thought leaders — including Malcolm Gladwell, Simon Sinek, Sheryl Sandberg, Arianna Huffington, Clayton Christensen and more — who are here to connect with organizations on the cutting edge.
Upcoming Events
Defining Innovation Speaker Series
The right conversation, with the right people, changes your perspective and your toolkit. We bring globally renowned thinkers (and doers!) like Malcolm Gladwell, Simon Sinek, Beth Comstock, Arianna Huffington, Amy Cuddy and others, to center city for intimate conversations, panels, audience Q+A and opportunities for one-on-one engagement.
Join us, and some of the Chamber’s member companies, for our annual speaker series and get plugged into a more creative, innovative and engaged way of working.
