This was clearly the pinnacle of gatherings for learning about the directions the business world is heading, and for my purposes, the role of university-corporate partnerships in that trajectory. I not only left with a head full of new ideas, but also some concrete ways to pursue them. Presenters were provocative and informative. The conference far surpassed my expectations.
Keynote Speaker
Congratulations on the event – absolutely incredible, a ton of fun, what a great crowd, I’ve already had several people who want to follow-up.
CEO/Founder, Lamini
So this KPMG event was the best / most helpful of all events I've spoken at over the last 2 years which is saying something bc there have been weeks this year that I speak at 6 events. So: Go Richard and thank you for inviting me!
