LEADERSHIP SUMMIT

In his life, Pat Tillman made his mark as a husband, teammate, soldier and brother. He believed we should always strive to be part of something bigger than ourselves.

The Pat Tillman Leadership Summit celebrates Pat’s values and brings together the community of Tillman Scholars to network, collaborate and develop solutions to the problems facing our country and our world. Tillman Scholars participate as moderators and presenters through panels, roundtables, and Unconference sessions on their own impact areas and as well as current events. 

The Pat Tillman Leadership Summit is made possible thanks to the continued generosity of the NFL

Not Another Crypto Panel

For the past few years, too much time has been spent asking “what is crypto?” In this session, we’re taking on the often overlooked, and possibly more important, question: “What can
crypto do?” Tillman Scholar Alex Pruden will interview two leading industry experts, including Tillman Scholar Jo Unruh, to help illuminate what all the fuss is about and show how blockchain technology represents new opportunities in finance, social impact, and the digital right to privacy.
