The summit had an Opening Event, three Summit Plenary sessions, and a Summit Gala that combined with 10 Nobel Prize Winners along with:
  • CEOs/entrepreneurs of major industrial companies who reflected on the role of applied technology, management, and entrepreneurship.
  • Academics and research institutes that reflected on the importance of research and education in creating pathways for innovation and change.
  • Politicians and public figures who reflected on the role of governance and political frameworks.
In other words, SIPS elevated its own bar toward higher levers of collaboration across multiple sectors and domains.
