Steven Kotler, a New York Times bestselling author and Flow Research Collective founder, has extensively explored the frontiers of human performance and how peak experiences shape innovation and culture. John Varvatos, a revered American paradigm-setting fashion designer, has infused the rebellious spirit of punk into the very fabric of his globally recognized brand, bridging the gap between rock 'n' roll and high fashion. Together, Kotler and Varvatos dive into "How the Kids Nobody Wanted Invented the World We Are All Living In." This session is a journey through the explosive history of punk, music, style, but most of all the DIY spirit. This deep dive is a revelation about how punk's fearless spirit is alive and activated in the business innovations and leaders of our generation. Expect the unexpected, from mohawks to market disruptors. Are you ready to see how punk rock rewrote the rules of business?
