Carmel, CA (PRWEB) April 10, 2017 -- MPSF Speaker Series has announced its exciting 2017-2018 speaker line-up to a subscriber community of over 8500 Bay Area citizens. As has been the tradition of the Speaker Series, now entering its 28th season, the speakers have been selected to present a range of ideas, opinion and perspective to the discriminating audiences of the San Francisco Bay Area.

As this is a time when world events are driven by new leaders and challenging global issues, our upcoming speakers will be addressing those issues as context for how the future of our planet evolves.

“MPSF is excited to bring eight compelling speakers to our audiences, all of whom are thought leaders in their areas of expertise,” said Jim Weil, President of MPSF Speaker Series. “As this is a time when world events are driven by new leaders and challenging global issues, our upcoming speakers will be addressing those issues as context for how the future of our planet evolves.”

The 2017-2018 Series will feature two well-known world leaders, journalists with resumes covering over 140 countries of the world on topics from war zone realities to U.S. presidential elections, and political commentators offering ways to transition the partisan discourse of our country. Turning away from politics, a top U.S. cyber security expert who now shares her expertise on our television screens, and one of America’s true space heroes will round out the season.

Subscriptions for the 2017-2018 Speaker Series are available online now at http://www.speakerseries.net. Pricing includes all eight speakers at one of three venues: Marin Veteran’s Memorial Auditorium in San Rafael, The Paramount Theater in Oakland, and the San Mateo Performing Arts Center

The 2017-2018 MPSF series brings these outstanding leaders in their fields to the MPSF stage:

Common Ground: Bob Beckel & Cal Thomas

Former White House CIO and Cyber security Authority, Star of “Hunted” - bringing real-world insights to tackling the perils of the cyber-underworld.
