Testimonials

  "We held a computer science workshop 3 weeks after summit and one of our facilitators pulled me aside and said, 'It’s been 3 weeks, and I am still thinking about Dr. Ford. I have never thought about a keynote speaker and their message this long after a conference before.' What a compliment! What an inspiration!"

Anna Pyles, STEM Project Specialist, Batelle

“We must make just and liberated futures irresistible.”
