2019 will be the seventh gathering of Brigadoon @ Sundance Mountain Resort in Utah


Frankly, I have found what happens off stage at Brigadoon Sundance to be the most compelling aspect of the gathering, but it is essential to have top-flight speakers to start the coffee-cup conversations and fireside discussions.

As the plan for Brigadoon Sundance 2019 comes together, we have secured the speaking talents of:

- A writer and comedian 

- A senior executive at the forefront of corporate social responsibility 

- A salesman harnessing AI to solve global challenges 

- A former mechanical engineer working at the leading edge of human longevity 

- A former operations executive harnessing the power of academia to ensure founders and their startups have a roadmap for success 

- A White House correspondent reporting in an age of increased geopolitical tensions 

- An author covering US-China commercial relations 

- A cybersecurity expert working with the Fortune 100 

- The foremost expert on luxury and art collecting 

- A policy and law expert on inclusive technology and innovation  

- A strategy and management professional creating more productive companies

It's an impressive line-up.

From the quality of the attendees to the world-class caliber of the speakers, Brigadoon Sundance keeps getting better and better.

The world is cluttered with worn-out conference formats, one-way panel events, and stuffy corporate dinners. Many gatherings you'll attend next year will fail miserably to connect onstage information with offstage networking opportunities and ambitious conversations.

That doesn't happen at Brigadoon Sundance.

Brigadoon gatherings are transformational, not transactional.

You will leave the gathering smarter, more informed on issues at the forefront of culture and commerce, and more energized from spending time in the mountains.

Most importantly, you will never have to sit through a dreadful slide deck presentation.

Brigadoon Sundance is powerpoint free, and all sessions are focused on high-quality conversations between speaker and attendees.

I look forward to seeing you in the Wasatch Mountains next February.

1. The world is cluttered with worn-out conference formats, one-way panel events, and stuffy corporate dinners

2. Gatherings rarely connect onstage information with offstage networking opportunities and ongoing conversations

3. Legacy events are myopic and don't bring a collection of well-rounded attendees to the same place at the same time

4. Leave the gathering smarter and more energized 

5. No dreadful powerpoint presentations

6. The conversations cover emerging issues shaping commerce and culture

7. Hear and learn from insiders and subject matter experts

8. The Owl

9. Alpine mountain activities = ski, snowshoe, hike, fly fish, yoga, plus photography and art classes
