The inaugural World Changing Ideas Summit will convene leaders from business, government, and academia to create connections, spark big ideas, and move them into action. The Summit is a unique collaboration between two of the most innovative forces in media and academic research: Fast Company, known for its long-running World Changing Ideas recognition program, and Johns Hopkins University, the nation’s first research university. 

Through dynamic mainstage sessions, hands-on innovation labs, and real-time problem-solving workshops, you’ll actively engage with the tools and technologies shaping our world—and the researchers behind them. Ideas are meant to move, and the best thinking should create change. Join us for a day that will challenge how you see the future—and connect you with the people and powerful ideas that can transform your organization, your work, and our world.
