Aspen Ideas Festival


This week a few members of the WC team are attending the Aspen Ideas Festival, a week-long convergence in Aspen, Colorado, packed with seminars and discussions geared toward generating productive conversation around some of the world's greatest challenges, and emerging solutions.

Last night there was a screening of An Inconvenient Truth, followed by an interesting Q&A with producer, Lawrence Bender. On the lawn outside, Cameron Sinclair -- who will be on several panels this week -- has set up two refugee shelters which will be on display all week (juxtaposed against the sponsorship display from Lexus; see images of the set-up escapade after the jump). WC's Joel Makower will also be moderating panels later in the week. More reports to come...
