Please join Good Ol' Girls and Girls in Tech for a special joint presentation by Peter Leyden, Director of the New Politics Institute and former Managing Editor of Wired magazine.

This engaging presentation lauded by U.S. Congressional leaders across the country and seen on the Google campus draws into
focus how advances in technology and new media, along with dramatic shifts in the demographics and generational make up of the country, are rapidly reshaping our politics.

It also offers ideas and strategies for how progressives can replicate our 20th century success in this new and dynamic century.

Peter Leyden is the Director of the New Politics Institute, responsible for developing a diverse network of strategists from many different fields to help progressives take advantage of today's massive changes in technology, media and demographics. Leyden comes from Global Business Network, a futures research and strategic consulting firm that pioneered the use of diverse networks of high capacity individuals.

Leyden previously worked as the managing editor at the original *Wired* magazine that helped drive the digital revolution and pioneered the early online new media. He has worked as a journalist at several newspapers and is the coauthor of two books, *The Long Boom* and *What's Next?* He's written for many publications, including *The New York Times*, the *Chicago Tribune*, and the *San Francisco Chronicle*.
