SUMMARY:Georgia Technology Summit
DESCRIPTION:Be a part of the largest gathering of tech professionals in Georgia at TAG’s annual meeting. Catch phenomenal speakers on the mainstage\, plus join engaging breakout sessions\, experience interactive demos\, learn more about TAG societies and the Society Showcase and see the Top 10/Top 40 Most Innovative Companies of Georgia as they are revealed. \nThe Georgia Technology Summit is an opportunity to LEARN\, MEET\, AND DISCOVER new ways for you and your company to get involved\, develop relationships\, and identify potential partnerships through the Technology Association of Georgia\, one of the largest technology associations in the U.S. \nBE IN THE KNOW on who is leading the industry through innovation and inspiring what’s next. \nKeynote Speakers:\nRobyn Benincasa\nFounder & CEO of World Class Teams | Founder of Project Athena \nWhen the challenges are steep\, and the competition fierce\, Robyn Benincasa gives individuals and organizations the tools they need to inspire themselves and one another to their greatest heights and across their most challenging finish lines. \nFor the last 20 years\, she and her teammates have been competing at the front of the pack in the most unique and compelling classrooms on earth–The jungles of Borneo\, the Himalayan peaks of Tibet\, the rivers of Fiji\, the rainforests of Ecuador and the desert of Namibia\, studying the good\, the bad\, and the not-so-pretty in Extreme Teamwork. It is through these harrowing\, life affirming and often hilarious experiences in the world’s most grueling challenges that she has emerged with her truly unique perspective on what it takes to build the kind of world class teams that succeed against all odds\, that triumph in the face of adversity and that win as one in times of great challenge and change. Robyn accepts full blame for inspiring people to do insane things like climb Mount Kilimanjaro\, run their first triathlon\, start their own adventure racing teams\, hike across the Grand Canyon with a group of Survivors\, or start their own businesses. This is\, after all\, who she is and what she does: Robyn Benincasa inspires people to grab life with one hand\, grab their teammates with the other\, and to create that special magic that makes all of us better TOGETHER than we ever would have been alone! \nRobyn has made an art form of extreme performance by competing and winning at the highest levels of sport and business; her keynotes are powerful\, impactful\, and packed with practical\, real-world takeaways that inspire peak performance and exceptional leadership. As a 20+ year veteran San Diego firefighter\, a World Champion Adventure Racer\, a 2014 CNN Hero\, a Guinness World Record Endurance Kayaker\, a best-selling author\, and founder of The Project Athena Foundation\, Robyn Benincasa *definitely* knows a thing or two about creating Human Synergy—or as Robyn puts it\, “that magic that allows groups of ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things together”. \nRobyn’s multi-faceted experience inspires people to grab life with one hand\, grab their teammates with the other\, and to achieve audacious goals that they could never accomplish alone. She is the expert that companies call on to build world class teams\, inspire peak performance and create a culture of champions. Robyn has successfully translated the lessons learned from extreme team sports to the corporate world\, with compelling keynotes that show how groups of ordinary people can accomplish extraordinary things together! \nCraig Neeb\nExecutive Vice President and Chief Innovation Officer of NASCAR \nCraig Neeb is Executive Vice President and Chief Innovation Officer of National Association of Stock Car Auto Racing (“NASCAR”).

SUMMARY:France-Atlanta 2019 Humanitarian Forum
DESCRIPTION:Logistics and supply chain management remains an often overlooked but crucial aspect of our daily lives. In emergencies\, programs and service delivery are only possible if the right product gets to the right people at the right place and at the right time. Due to natural disasters\, famine\, disease and other ongoing problems across the globe\, the need for resilient and strengthened supply chains is becoming increasingly recognized. \nThe French Consulate General in Atlanta and Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health\, and the Georgia Institute of Technology Center for Health and Humanitarian Systems will host a one-day forum uniting French and American NGOs and health experts. Over the course of two panel discussions\, experts will touch on medical commodities\, the use of pre-packed kits and the opportunity for collaboration between corporations and humanitarian organizations. They will also explore the connection between Atlanta-based programming and organizations with global humanitarian logistics programing. \nReception to follow.
