UC Berkeley seminar
BERKELEY, Calif.--The Armenian Students' Association at the University
of California, Berkeley has organized a one-day seminar called,
"The Road to Home: Defining Success in the Diaspora." The event will
take place on Sunday, March 16 at 3:30 p.m. at the university's Haas
School of Business, Anderson Auditorium
The featured speakers hail from a host of backgrounds including Goldman
Sachs, Google, and Human Rights Watch, among them Aram Ayazyan from
Googlep; Vache Moroyan from BloomReach; Sarah Leah Whitson from
Human Rights Watch; Christine Soussa from Symantec Corporation;
Alex Saghatelian from Cisco Systems, Inc.; Adam Kablanian, the CEO
of PlasmaSi; Kevin Minissian, the CEO of Norchem Corporation; and
Kim Bardakian from Visit Oakland.
The speaker panel will be focused on discussing the role that young
Armenian diasporans should play. The panelists will touch on how their
cultural heritage influenced their success in the United States and
how that success redounds to the benefit of Armenia. Most important,
the panelists will share how that success can be replicated for a
younger generation of Armenian Americans.
The event is composed of three parts. First, the audience will hear
from each speaker individually then the first speaker panel will
convene, followed by a brief intermission. The second speaker panel
will be followed by a question and answer session. Both speaker panels
will be moderated by Professor Stephan Astourian of the UC Berkeley
Armenian Studies Program.
"We are excited to offer this unique opportunity, for the first time
ever, to students and community members alike, interested in spending
an evening with different generations of Armenians in our local Bay
Area and from around the globe," Berkeley ASA member David Mkrtchian,
an organizer of the event.
