In the new global economy, innovation is happening at the nexus

of diverse public, private, and civil society sectors. It requires a

place where collaboration thrives.

And that is what THE GLOBAL SUMMIT is.

To bring humanity’s most pressing issues and vital solutions into the global spotlight, it follows the Summer and Winter Olympic Games—

the world’s greatest demonstration of a peaceful convergence.

2020 Vision: Whole system re-design. Realize, road-test and

evaluate an “Interdisciplinary” 21st Century policy & philanthropy

system --forge a locally-led global partnership for development.
