The voices who have passed through.
Each story comes from a different corner of a life. The circle holds them all.
AI and Business
Gene Moo Lee, Associate Professor at UBC Sauder, brings both academic and industry experience from Intel, AT&T, and Goldman Sachs. In this Fireside Chat, we dive into how AI is transforming business — through a casual yet insightful conversation, followed by a Q&A.
AI, Work, and Life
Sungoh Hwang brings deep R&D and leadership experience from Samsung Korea and Samsung R&D Canada, spanning enterprise mobility, Knox security platforms, and global standards work. In this Fireside Chat, we explore how secure mobile productivity is evolving — from cloud security to ecosystem building — through a casual yet insightful conversation, followed by a Q&A.
Culture and Business
More than twenty years across three continents — Silicon Valley, Istanbul, and Khartoum — reading how culture and commerce shape one another. Over an evening we take up Korean brands going global, evaluating overseas partners, what Vancouver holds for the businesses that read it well, and the shape of a country's brand across two decades.
The next speakers arrive quietly, in their own time.
