Summary

Join information architect Abby Covert for a conference wrap-up for the ages. All the sensemakers (Dan Brown, Sophia Prater, Hang Xu, ) will return to help us bring all the threads together. Our collective goal: figure out where we are, what we uncovered and the paths of where this might all go and how we might support one another during this shift.
