Scientists and engineers share their big ideas at BEYA Leading Voices. The event celebrates innovators from leading institutions who have been recognized for their impressive accomplishments in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). Also featured are subject matter experts who deliver thought-provoking TechTalks that enlighten and challenge conventional thinking against the backdrop of Hall of Innovation displays.

Thought leaders you meet in each issue of US Black Engineer (USBE) magazine headline the event. Each year, dynamic commentators present ground-breaking concepts on psychology, aging, life science, quantum computing, cancer research, material science, robotics, and automation to the BEYA audience and the world.  Click the link and watch.
