The seven topics are: The Newark Brand, Economic Inclusion and Buy Local, Community Healing, Sustainable Neighborhoods, Healthy Food Access, Youth Empowerment, and Women in Leadership. Among the list of speakers are Ron Beit, the visionary developer behind Newark's Teachers Village project, Vincent Vittorio and Nathaniel Thomas McGill, producers of acclaimed manufacturing documentary American Made, Darnell L.
