And, I've got a cheap way for you to attend. Register to attend the Disaster Resilience Symposium that will be embedded into the Summit. Tom Sampson, the head of Calgary's Emergency Management agency, will be on a panel with me where we discuss what disaster resilience is and how to define it. The cost for this two-day event is $195 and for another $100, you can attend the entire Summit (a real bargain!).
