F
orty of the world’s top thought leaders in

tion and health will present their innovative
views and converse with attendees at the
Imagine Solutions Conference 2010, from 8:30
a.m. to 6 p.m., February 22-23, at the Philhar-

“In these extraordinary times, knowledge
is a critical commodity. Only with knowledge
can effective action be taken,” says Randy
Antik, CEO of Searching for Solutions Insti-
tute, organizers of the groundbreaking event.
“Real knowledge, the kind that reflects varying viewpoints and in-depth analysis,
is not always immediately available. We hope to pool that type of knowledge and
concentrate on the top five issues facing America and the world.”

international security issues; Dean Ornish, M.D., founder of the Preventive Medicine
Research Institute and author of six bestselling books, including Eat More, Weigh
Less and The Spectrum; National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Sylvia Earle, an
oceanographer and author who has led more than 60 expeditions; Cheryl Dorsey,
president of Echoing Green, a global nonprofit that has provided start-up capital for
more than 450 social entrepreneurs since 1987; and former U.S. Comptroller Gen-
eral David Walker, advocate for fiscal responsibility and star of the documentary,
I.O.U.S.A.
Fee: Through February 15, $2,000 ($2,500 after). Includes three meals daily, invita-
tions for pre- and post-conference events, newsletter updates and a DVD of the event.
