FedEx Distinguished Speaker Series
The FedEx Distinguished Speaker Series features CEOs and policymakers discussing issues at the forefront of their industries. Launched in 2006 as simply a Distinguished Speaker Series, the program was named through a generous grant from the FedEx Corporation in February of 2008 and ran until 2010. The goal of the series was to give CEOs and policymakers an intimate venue to discuss big-picture topics in front of a diverse audience of students, academics, policymakers and business people.
Held at the National Press Club in downtown Washington, DC, the FedEx Series gives speakers and guests an unparalleled opportunity to discuss issues at the forefront of business and public policy.
