    Talk
    Talks are 90-minute electrifying, action-inspiring onstage programs, featuring four to six world class thought leaders who each present ideas on a single theme through either an individual presentation or a one-on-one conversation with a host.

    What is happiness, and how does it influence our daily lives? What is the world asking of you? What do you think about right before you die? In this talk, we’ll dig into these big questions and go beyond by looking at new perspectives on some of life’s greatest mysteries.
