2015 Fuller Symposium: Wired in the Wild 11/18




Save the Date! November 18, 2015
9:00 - 6:00 pm
Reception and Technology Fair to follow the Symposium.
Where: National Geographic Society; 1145 17th St NW; M St Building; Grosvenor Auditorium; Washington, D.C, 20036

Today, more than ever, we depend on innovations in technology for our work, health and daily lives. Technological breakthroughs are changing the way we address some of the most pressing issues threatening our planet—providing new tools to monitor illegal activity from the sky and use eDNA to inventory biodiversity from a single drop of water. Scaling innovative solutions requires learning from other sectors and tracking emerging opportunities.
The 2015 Fuller Symposium on November 18th will bring together thought leaders in science, policy, business, conservation and development to tackle the emerging issues facing our planet. This year’s symposium will explore current uses of innovative technology and the promises and perils they pose in addressing some of the planet's greatest challenges.
The event is free and open to the public and will take place at the National Geographic Society’s Grosvenor Auditorium in Washington, D.C. It will also be streamed live on the web.
