Can We Thrive Together? Health, Access, and Equity in a New Paradigm

In a time of profound change, how do we create systems that ensure health, access, and equity for all? Skye Perryman, President and CEO of Democracy Forward and a 2025 TIME100 honoree, will explore what it means to build a new paradigm that enables individuals and communities to thrive together.

A nationally recognized lawyer and leader, Perryman has advanced landmark litigation and policy efforts to defend democratic values, expand access to essential services, and promote equity in health and beyond. Drawing on this experience, she will share how cross-sector collaboration and bold legal and civic action can help shape a healthier, more inclusive future. This keynote invites us to consider not only the challenges of today but also the possibilities of what we can achieve together.
