Public Program

Aspen's public program consists of a series of breakfast, luncheon or evening meetings with top business and political leaders and policy experts.

The meetings are organized for the larger public with precedence given to the Friends of Aspen Berlin who pay dues that are used to defray Aspen’s operating costs. Prospective members of the Friends of Aspen Berlin are invited to experience two-to-three events before being asked to decide whether to support Aspen financially.

The events entail no more than 15-20 attendees who gather to hear a 20 minute presentation by Aspen's guest speaker. The presentation is both preceded and followed by extensive formal and informal conversation periods during which attendees have an opportunity to meet and have a meaningful exchange with Aspen's guest speaker.

Attendance is deliberately restricted to a very small number and is by invitation only. Priority is given to corporate and private members of the Friends of Aspen Berlin - in that order.

Aspen wishes to thank the Shepard Stone Stiftung, Friends of Aspen Berlin e.V., Mr. Leonard A. Lauder and Ambassador Ronald S. Lauder for making the Public Program of events possible.
