Welcome to goREDTALKS! The theme for our event is the “Heart of Detroit” and is curated by the AHA Go Red For Women team.
The idea of goREDTALKS is loosely based on the principals of Ted Talks - a showcase for speakers presenting a well-formed idea in a short period of time. Our speakers are varied and include C-Suite executives, medical professionals, advocates for healthier lifestyles, survivors and people that make a difference right here in “Heart of Detroit”. Our goal is to bring together bright minds to give talks that are idea-focused, and on a wide range of subjects, to foster learning, inspiration and wonder – and to provoke conversations that matter.
We are proud to announce that our goREDTALKS speaker lineup shall include:
