Incredible Dinners at POPTech
Last night I had the pleasure of sharing a dinner at Camden’s local Thai restaurant with Dr. Tom Barnett, POPTech’s next program speaker. Tom wrote a New York Times best-selling book, The Pentagon’s New Map, which outlined a new approach to globalization that redefines the dynamics of global politics and development. Visit his blog for everything from his take on subjects ranging from the Middle East, North Korea, and Iran to reading his experiences adopting a baby girl from China.
(Tom also has a new book called, Blueprint for Action: A Future Worth Creating, which continues on with prescriptive ideas as a follow up to his first book.)
Later on that evening, I reflected on the remarkable folks who I’ve shared a lunch or dinner, or other social time here in Camden. They include Bill Joy, co-founder of Sun Microsystems, Li Lu, a co-leader of the Tien An Men student protests, John Scully, former CEO of Pepsico and Apple, the performer Haale, Joseph Chamie from the United Nations, Sanjit Bunker Roy of the Barefoot College, Ira Glasser, former head of the ACLU, and others…
Only at POPTech. Incredible.
