VM Summit Mission:
To present ideas that force us to consider—not necessarily accept— their value and potential impact. To elevate the conversation about our industry’s future, and facilitate the understanding of innovations as they are proselytized and make progress towards market influence.
"Invading armies can be resisted; invading ideas cannot be.”
- --Victor Hugo, “The History of a Crime”,
an essay condemning Napoleon III’s 1851 coup d'état disbanding the French assembly
