Practical Purpose
The goal of the conference is not just to pass the time listening to interesting lectures. The aim is to receive inspiration and learn practical knowledge from people who apply positive values in projects and fields that we are not familiar with. Also, to allow people with positive values to connect together and create larger collaborations than what exists today.
The Next Steps
It is worth formulating this idea further. So if such a conference sounds interesting to you, and you have ideas about what should be included in it, or you want to lecture or participate in it, please contact us.
