The Everbridge symposium series, which kicked off in 2020, offers global leaders a valuable forum to exchange views on how to safely reopen economies and restore the ability for people to return to schools, offices and other public spaces. Speakers and participants represent all sectors of society from business and government, community organizations and advocacy groups, to science, medicine, transportation, entertainment, and academia.
“By bringing together the brightest minds in government and business, along with top health experts from around the world, our 2021 COVID-19: Road to Recovery symposium tackles the complex challenges and best practices required to help solve this public health crisis faster – from efficient distribution of a vaccine to safely returning people to work and re-opening economies,” said David Meredith, CEO of Everbridge. “With the establishment of the Clinton Foundation and President Clinton’s commitment to matters of global health and economic recovery, we welcome his important perspective and proven leadership on solutions for improving the lives of people around the world.”
As the 42nd president of the United States, President Clinton served two terms from 1993 to 2001. Under his leadership, the country enjoyed the strongest economy in a generation and the longest economic expansion in U.S. history, including the creation of more than 22 million jobs. After leaving the White House, President Clinton established the Clinton Foundation with the mission to improve global health, strengthen economies, promote health and wellness, and protect the environment. In addition to his Foundation work, President Clinton has served as the top United Nations envoy for the Indian Ocean tsunami recovery effort and as the UN Special Envoy to Haiti. Today, the Clinton Foundation is supporting economic growth, capacity building, and education in Haiti.
Last year, Everbridge welcomed President George W. Bush, Anthony Fauci, MD, Scott Gottlieb, MD, Dr. Sanjay Gupta, MD, U.S. General Colin L. Powell, USA (Ret.), and Virgin Group Founder Sir Richard Branson, among others, to serve as keynote speakers. The events attracted more than 40,000 participants including government officials, healthcare experts and senior executives from 150 countries, as well as participants from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Mayo Clinic, Goldman Sachs, Fannie Mae, Ford Motor Company, Humana, IBM, and others.
