A week ago on June 12th, Singapore hosted possibly the most important diplomatic event to ever happen in history. Who would have thought a tiny city state would host a collision of egos this massive? It was a special time for 1880 as well.

We hosted our largest salon yet one day after on June 13th, drawing over 200 curious, concerned minds converging on a Wednesday night for a post-Summit dialogue. This is what 1880 is about — to inspire, provoke, and enable conversations about our future.

How does the road ahead seem? Watch the full discussion on our Facebook page.
