Agenda for the Virtual Summit:

We are lucky to have more than forty speakers join us for this summit - WAY more than we can fit into a day long summit. For that reason, we're taking a unique approach to launching all of these videos. After the initial LIVE webinar from Rohit and the backstage event, we will start sharing these interviews EVERY 15 minutes throughout the day.

Check out the list below, bookmark your calendar for each new release, or subscribe here to get a YouTube notification every time a new video gets posted! To watch these videos on demand whenever you like, make sure to register for the event.
