The closing forum will feature 6 Pecha Kucha 20x20 presentations (20 slides, each for 20 seconds) followed by a discussion moderated by Matt Root. Participants will include three sages—John Abrams, Chuck Silver and Terry Brennan and three rising stars - Declan Keefe, Ace McArleton and Stephanie Horowitz. In 90 minutes, this session will teach you more about building, design, business, and life than you could learn in 10 years on your own.

The three sages will go first, sharing their hard-won knowledge about best practices: what works, what doesn't, and how they have survived and thrived for 30+ years in the industry. The rising stars will then follow suit, sharing their current and anticipated paths, the challenges they are facing, and where they are following in the steps of the previous generation and where they are blazing new trails.
