Three more Big Kansas City speakers
Perhaps one of the most valuable takeaways from our conferences are the relationships built with our very special attendees, our speakers. They’re a part of the shared experience; reflecting on other keynote presentations, drinking a beer with us at the parties and creating valuable mentorships and future partnerships.
Among the three individuals we announce today one has build a nonprofit network aiding one of world’s biggest problems, one has demonstrated a product in the hand’s of President Obama and another has grown the largest live-auction marketplace. Help us welcome returning Big Series speaker Scott Harrison along with new faces Adam Wilson and Ryan Downs.

Scott Harrison, charity: water@ScottHarrison Perhaps one of the most impactful and passionate talks, Scott Harrison's Big Omaha 2010 presentation left our attendees with chills and sparked a call-to-action raising more than $15,000 for charity: water bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing countries. Scott continues his story at Big Kansas City. |
