You are invited to participate in our 2021 Virtual Annual Event
Bringing back our successful 2020 online annual event format. This unique virtual experience allows you and your guests to join small, carefully curated “tables” and engage with our global audience, thought leaders, and experts from around the world – all from the comfort of your own home.
By participating, you are supporting the Bulletin’s vital mission of equipping the public, policymakers, and scientists with the information needed to reduce man-made threats to our existence, while at the same time elevating the role of science in the formation of public policy.
Event Features
Each virtual table has two provocateurs, established and up-and-coming experts in the fields of nuclear risk, climate change, and disruptive technologies. The provocateurs include members of the Bulletin’s Science and Security Board, Board of Sponsors, and invited experts from around the world.
Table hosts can select their experts from an exciting list of confirmed leaders. A sample of last year’s experts is included in this package. As the host, you or your designated guest will also introduce the provocateurs and assist in leading the table conversations.
In addition to the intimate “table” style conversation, we will gather as a community. The program will include keynote speakers, our Rieser Award recipient, and special messages for our guests.
