Yellow Summit Speakers: 
Jenny Dorsey: Keynote Presentation: Why Food Should Be A Champion for Social Change  
Food very well may be the oldest form of art, and to this day remains a visceral experience during every interaction. Jenny specializes in fusing culinary arts with social concepts and emerging technology, especially AR/VR.
She believe's food is one of the strongest ways to not only educate each other on the world and cultures around us, but also to promote change in social norms and social ideology. 
Food can be an expression of why toxic masculinity hurts our country, or why cultural appropriation reduces are ability to innovate, or why women continue to struggle to make dollar for dollar, or even why gun control is not about weapons but about self-esteem. Everyone must eat, so food is a platform to express opinions in a way that is not pedantic, not one-sided, during a time where our guard is already down and our emotions are high.
Christina Fortier: Empathy Elevates Us: A Human-Centered Approach For Creative Problem Solvers
Christina has a strong belief in the responsibility that we need to stay focused on our human connections, technology should connect us rather than separate or devalue our relationships. Empathy should drive our decision making, take our good ideas and transform them into extraordinary results.
Elevate and humanize your work and the customer and the brand wins. Data research, design and applications can help us see the story more clearly, but we need to remember at the root there is something more – A Human. When we push our designs to be human-centric and care more about the people we are solving problems for we get a better result.
