11th Annual Symi Symposium 2008
The 11th Annual Symi Symposium will take place July 13-19, 2008 in Ouranoupolis, Greece. It will bring together about 30 of the most interesting thinkers, Nobel laureates, entrepreneurs, politicians, religious leaders, diplomats, scientists, and activists to address how progressive parties can develop successful political platforms that respond to the challenges of the coming decade, focusing on such issues on climate change and energy security; the reform or reinvention of international institutions; and the global food crisis.
The Symposium was first held in 1998 on the island of Symi, which has lent its name to this event ever since. Convened every year on a different Greek venue, the Symi Symposium is designed to nurture spirited debate in a discreet setting. Participants come from all over the world, and their divergent interests and backgrounds enliven both formal and informal conversations. The Symi Symposium has fostered ideas and friendships that have borne fruit in the form of significant projects, ventures, and public service.
