| Dr. Michio Kaku |
|
| Theoretical Physicist, Author & Professor |
|
| Dr. Michio Kaku, one of the most widely recognized figures in science today, is a theoretical physicist, best-selling author and popularizer of science. As the co-founder of string field theory, he continues Einstein's search to unite the four fundamental forces of nature into one unified theory that will summarize all the physical laws of the universe. Additionally, he predicts trends affecting business, commerce and finance based on the latest research in science. |
|
| The author of numerous international bestsellers, Dr. Kaku's newest book, The Future of the Mind, illustrates the stunning breakthroughs being made in neuroscience, which are finally beginning to unravel the mysteries of the most complex object in the known universe: the human brain. |
|
| A regular commentator on Tech-TV, he was featured in the full-length feature film, Me and Isaac Newton, in 2001. Starting in 2008, he became a regular host on the Science Channel/Discovery Channel. He also hosts his own national weekly radio program, Science Fantastic. In addition, Dr. Kaku has written for and is widely quoted in major newspapers, and science and technology magazines. |
|
| Dr. Kaku holds the Henry Semat Chair in Theoretical Physics at the City University of New York, where he has taught for almost 30 years. |

| Jinsop Lee |
|
Industrial Designer
Chief Globalization Officer, Linno |
|
| Jinsop's design background began when he was five years old and his mother refused to buy him a Star Wars X-wing fighter, so he built his own from Lego. While he was traumatized with his multi-colored Lego X-wing fighter, it taught him an important lesson: You don't have to follow the instructions that come with the box. |
|
| Since then, Lee has become a multi-disciplinary designer, making use of the design process in a variety of jobs that have included design consulting, a professor of design and a stint in the army. In 2012 he was one of the winners of the TED Global Talent Search, which led to a TED talk in 2013. Lee's topic was the connection between design and the five senses, a theory that he was able to devise thanks to the diverse life he has lived. |
|
| Lee is currently the Chief Globalization Officer at a lighting company called Linno, where he continues to not follow the instructions that come with the box. |
