Theme: Draw your idea

Life is often likened to drawing a picture. Just like drawing colors and pictures on white paper, people fill their lives with moments of choices and behaviors. So drawing "what" in life becomes an indicator of the person's identity. Some people draw their own life, and others draw society and the world. Based on this idea, we set the theme of the event as "Drawing" and make a place to spread the stories among people who are making the world more colorful. A total of five speakers will be involved in the event. They draw idea (ideal society) through their invaluable idea.
