The Peres Summit 2016 is an international gathering inspired by the vision and work of Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and former President and Prime Minister of the State of Israel Shimon Peres. The summit explores aspects of leadership, management, decision-making and other key tools crucial in navigating the future, with a focus on recent innovations on technological development, which will affect our shared future.
During decades of serving the public, Peres witnessed dramatic changes across the world. Throughout his experience, he has learnt that ultimately it is our choice not only to adapt ourselves to these changes but also to affect them and engage them into our efforts to build a better future. Thus, the Summit is a platform for open dialogue to discuss ideas, and spark innovation in order to create the foundations for a better tomorrow. The Summit aims to create a synergy between the different disciplines, which, though divergent, influence one another in the fascinating journey that leads to the gates of tomorrow. Leading figures from all walks of life and from across the world will focus on the critical decisions and calls to action that will secure a better future. In this spirit, the Peres Summit will gather leaders who act as ambassadors of hope in the fields of science, international policy, economy, arts, technology, innovation and more. These prominent influencers and thinkers share a belief in our power and our responsibility to make a better tomorrow.
