A Social, Networking Environment: The GSWS anticipates that an international delegation of 300-plus senior executives from 40-plus countries will gather in Colorado this June. In addition to the robust “formal” agenda of presentations, there will be an array of social and one- on-one networking experiences each day: from gala dinners, to group touring and hiking excursions in and around Aspen

SRI International was also responsible for other landmark Summit
