Speakers: (Left to Right) Mary Collins George and Tina Chase
Entrepreneurs Tina Chase and Mary Collins George, will describe their decade-long history of producing internationally-recognized technology investment conferences in association with Forbes magazine and Gilder Publishing, LLC and describe how they parlayed that experience into the development and production of the inaugural Berkshire Forum event (September 14 – 16 at the Colonial Theatre in Pittsfield, MA). The Berkshire Forum is described at their website.
They will detail the launch of The Berkshire Forum and share their secrets to attracting a remarkable network of over fifty regional and national business leaders, social innovators, technology visionaries, and entrepreneurs, such as the Chairman of the National Chamber Foundation, a world-leading health-policy expert, the Director of MIT’s Teaching and Learning Lab, and the Editor of the Boston Globe to speak at the event.
