The Council of Chapters consists of representatives from all SEDS-USA Chapters. The Council meets every other week via an online chat server.

Dr. Peter Diamandis
- Chairman & CEO of the X Prize Foundation
- Co Author of Abundance: The Future is Better than You Think
According to tech entrepreneur turned philanthropist Peter Diamandis, “providing abundance is humanity’s grandest challenge.”
Diamandis offers a hopeful message of not only how our world is getting better but also rapidly improving to fulfill the basic needs of every man, woman, and child. Hear how innovators like Larry Page, Steven Hawking, Bill Joy, and others are tackling some of our biggest problems – water, food, energy, healthcare, communication, and education.
Diamandis also explains how four forces – exponential technologies, the DIY innovator, the Technophilanthropist, and the Rising Billion are changing the future by transforming things that were once scarce into something abundant.
