SUMMARY:Oglethorpe Theatre Presents Spring Awakening
DESCRIPTION:Oglethorpe Theatre presents “Spring Awakening” \nBook & Lyrics by Steven Sater \nMusic by Duncan Sheik \nDirected by Richard Garner \nThe winner of eight Tony Awards\, including Best Musical\, Spring Awakening is a groundbreaking rock musical about adolescent love\, the trials of puberty\, and the friendships that young people build in the face of an uncomprehending world. Inspired by Frank Wedekind’s once-banned and still provocative German play from 1891\, this Spring Awakening holds a mirror up to our own time\, and has become a must-see musical of a new generation.

SUMMARY:The Demands of Smart Power
DESCRIPTION:ACIR President Bob Kennedy will speak at the President’s breakfast on “The Demands of Smart Power.” Seating is limited to 20 attendees. \nSmart Power has been defined as the use of both hard power (often military force) and soft power (non-military) to achieve objectives in the international arena. Often missing from such formulations is an explicit delineation of the elements of “Smart Power.” In a brief talk before discussions commence\, Bob Kennedy will identify what he considers to be the key elements of “Smart Power” that hold promise of effective foreign policy. \nA former senior government official\, Bob is a professor emeritus at Georgia Tech’s the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs. Prior positions include: director of the George C. Marshall European Center for Security Studies\, Germany; Deputy Commandant\, NATO Defense College\, Italy; Dwight D. Eisenhower Professor of National Security Studies and Senior Researcher\, Strategic Studies Institute\, U.S. Army War College; Foreign Affairs Officer\, U.S. Arms Control and Disarmament Agency; an enlisted man in the U.S. Army; and command pilot on active duty with the U.S. Air Force. \nBob has lectured and published widely and has served as a consultant in the fields of international security and defense affairs. His most recent books are Of Knowledge and Power: the Complexities of National Intelligence and The Road to War: Congress’ Historic Abdication of Responsibility.

SUMMARY:Germanic Language & Dialect Series - Österreichische Dialekte
DESCRIPTION:German leaners across the globe have had the experience of traveling abroad and realizing the German they learned in the classroom is not the German they heard in Europe. Why is that? There are numerous dialects throughout all of the German-speaking countries\, and even within a variety there can be several other subcategories. The Germanic Language and Dialect Series will present derivatives of the standard variety also known as “Hochdeutsch.” Native speakers and language experts will provide background information\, historical context\, and numerous examples. It will be a fun\, interactive afternoon as each session will explore a new dialect in Germany\, Austria\, and Switzerland.

SUMMARY:Raising Capital on AIM: October 21\, 2019
DESCRIPTION:Growth Companies take AIM and Raise Capital in the UK – Hear an Atlanta-based CFO’s Perspective on Different Capital Markets \nIPOs for companies with equity valuations less than $500m are increasingly rare in the U.S. However\, London’s growth market AIM is a viable alternative for companies below this threshold to access the capital markets and for existing shareholders\, such as VCs and founders\, to monetize their holdings. \nDavid Pattillo\, former CFO of Georgia based\, AIM-listed companies Clearstar (LON:CLSU) and Mycelx (LON: MYX) and current board member of Endava (NYSE: DAVA)\, will share his experience executing IPOs on AIM and U.S. exchanges as well as raising private capital. You will also hear from leading capital markets experts\, including investor engagement specialists from Edison Advisors\, representatives of London Stock Exchange and lawyers from Gowling WLG and Miller & Martin\, who will compare AIM IPOs to U.S. IPOs including key process steps and profile of typical investors and contrast this with private fundraising alternatives. \nAgenda: \n\n3:45 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. Registration and networking\n4:00 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. Program\n5:30 – 6:30 Networking and cocktail reception

SUMMARY:Settimana della Lingua Italiana Movie Night
DESCRIPTION:The Consulate General of Switzerland in Atlanta has the pleasure to announce its participation in the Settimana della Lingua Italiana. In cooperation with the French and Italian Department at Emory University\, the Consulate invites you to the screening of the movie “Cercando Camille”. Doors open at 6:30PM and seating will be on first-come-first-serve basis. Snacks will be provided. The movie will be screened in Italian with English subtitles. \nAbout the film:\nWhen dutiful and loyal Camille decides to go on a road trip down memory lane with her Alzheimer’s suffering father\, she must learn to let her father go or risk losing her own chance at a life and happiness.\nFINDING CAMILLE is the moving and at times heartbreakingly humorous story of a father and daughters’ journey to get to know each other\, whilst simultaneously forgetting what bonded them in the first place. It’s about the loss of oneself\, the other and the opportunities that life gives you to live for the moment\, embracing love\, adventure and happiness.
