Testimonials

“ An exquisitely curated experience that brings about thought-provoking and soul-searching discussions on innovative, impactful,

and exponential solutions."

-Maria Cavalcanti - CEO, Pro Mujer

“ SU Global Summit is truly one of the best conferences I have ever attended. Every person who attends truly wants to be there, is completely engaged in every aspect & is a great

opportunity to further networking efforts. I was mind-blown by many of the speakers and the technological advancements they were presenting. Three days filled with learning and becoming acquainted with a portion of the world we are not familiar with.

Great experience."

-Maria Saldarriaga, Business Development, FTI

“ A broad variety of highly relevant and informative programs and speakers. Even as a techie & futurist, I learned. It's great to be able to interact with world-changers in such a relatively informal setting."

-Steve Burgess, COO, Foresight.org

“ The Summit gave me a comprehensive understanding of the importance of exponential technologies to solve the great challenges

of our era. In particular, it laid the foundation to drive from the state government of Jalisco dialogue to be leaders in Mexico in the

development of exponential organizations"

-Gustavo Padilla-Montes, Policy Maker, Secretaría de Innovación Ciencia y Tecnología, Jalisco, Mexico

“ This was the only place where the impact of converging exponential technologies are being explored so thoroughly"

-Gary Stein, Futures & Options Trader, Paradox Traders

“ This was my first SU event, and I went in with really high expectations. I am pleased to say that they were exceeded at every turn. The show, the venue, the off site events and the participants were all world class. I have been telling everyone that I lived for 5

days, 30 years in the future."

-Christopher Bush, Systems Integration for Agriculture, Catalyst Agri-Innovations Society
