More than 2,500 people gathered in Los Angeles for the 9th annual Global Conference, an exploration of new thinking on a host of current international policy concerns, from energy independence to educating a 21st century work force.
This year's theme was "Expanding Opportunities in the Global Marketplace," and most of the 100-plus sessions focused in one way or another on how to do that - in finance, health care, education and other areas.
A record number of speakers - more than 380 - filled this year's program, including half a dozen Nobel laureates, more than 100 corporate CEOs, the president of the Czech Republic, two astronauts, a network anchor, the only seven-time Tour de France winner, a leading futurist, the FDA chief, and a former NATO commander, to mention just a few.
Sessions explored a wide range of current topics, including jobs, education, tax policy, nutrition, global risk, national security and much more.
Summaries of many of the panels are available by clicking on the individual sessions links on one of the program pages.
The 10th anniversary Milken Institute Global Conference will take place April 23-25, 2007, in Los Angeles. Register early to ensure your attendance.
