Jessica Meszaros: Covering Climate In A Sinking State

Willi Rudowsky: Free Events: Someone Pays If Not You
Explore the hidden economics behind ""free"" events, from generous sponsors to clever cost-cutting. This witty, thought-provoking talk uncovers who foots the bill and why it matters more than you think. Learn how understanding these dynamics can help you spot value and make smart donations to keep those ""free"" events alive for another year or more.."
Willi Rudowsky is a professional multitasker with three master’s degrees,, none of which she ever really used for work. As the current president of St. Petersburg in the World, Inc., she spends her days organizing global affairs conferences and dreaming of trading her husband for a Sydney zip code (he’s fine with it). When not cooking, organizing events or sitting on boards, she’s likely reminiscing about her teenage dream of Constantinople, which she finally checked off 36 years later.
Lynne Platt: Do U Know About Nato
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s been around since 1949, but much has changed in 75 years. Updates and information presented in the form of a quiz.
Lynne Platt is a St. Pete resident, retired Foreign Service Officer and Standard poodle owner. Along with Willi Rudowsky, she recently got the St. Petersburg in the World non-profit accepted into the World Affairs Councils of America. Lynne knew she was a nerd when her 6th grade boyfriend told her that “girls who try to be walking encyclopedias should remember: reference books are never taken out.
