Beginning in January 2015, the Collab discovered “Zoom” as a platform for presenters and members from around the world meet together informally in real time. Each month we focus on a different theme as kindling from which dynamic conversation ignites. Members can join us in real time and also review archived materials from past Salons here. Please try out our new filters to easily find Salons according to Presenters name and/or “Hot Topics.”
