We de-institutionalize knowledge sharing by giving in-depth talks from the comfort of a living room, amongst friends.
Your friends know things. Big things.
But how often do you listen intently as they go into detail about their specialty or passion?
Do we need highfalutin conferences and 'networking' events or formal education to learn? No.
Are professors, CEO's, and authors the only ones with knowledge to share? Nope.
Can I learn about Botany, Music Theory, Social Justice, Communication, Performance Art, Astronomy, Psychology, and History from my friends? YES!!!!
Living Room lectures is exactly that: lectures in a living room.
There will be 3 speakers who each have 30 minutes to present including time for a Q&A to discuss as a group and learn together.
