Open to everyone interested, the B:CIVIC Summit is packed with national and local speakers, content, inspiring stories, and best practices. Whether you are a seasoned executive or new in the field, you will find sessions of great value.
Combining a welcome from the Honorable Governor John Hickenlooper, workshops, facilitated roundtables about a spectrum of topics, lightning talks (TED-style talks), more workshops and a closing keynote from Google, this conference is for you and your team! Bring guests, potential clients, staff members or colleagues and be a part of thought leadership in our community.
Speakers include:
Mike Hess, Blind Institute of Technology. Mike gave up his very well-earned career in IT to dedicate his life to helping others find career opportunities who are blind or visually impaired. Ever wish you could do the same? Mike’s bravery is compounded because only about 15% of people from the BVI community ever get to pursue their professions. His humor, appreciation and focus will inspire you!
Mike Stemple, Inspirer. Founder of nearly 20 companies and a sponsored athlete, Mike is focused on the relentless pursuit of success and accomplishments, and his newest venture will inspire you toward your personal and professional brand best!
Nicole Glaros, TechStars. She got her entrepreneurial start in the 4th grade, orchestrating cousins into theatrical plays and charging neighbors admission. Since 2002, she’s been mentoring and funding early-stage web software companies.
