Michael K.
Powell Presentation:
Wednesday, October 26th, 10:15am to
11:00am
The Honorable Michael K. Powell served as Chairman
of the Federal Communications Commission at a time
of revolutionary change in technology and
communications. He was appointed by President
Clinton in 1997 and was designated Chairman by
President Bush in
2001.
As Chairman, Mr. Powell created the right
regulatory conditions to stimulate the deployment
of powerful technologies that put more power in the
hands of the people. He clearly saw the importance
of the rise of digital technologies and the impact
they would have on our lives, from health care to
education. As Chairman, he focused on initiatives
that encouraged market-driven solutions that
promoted consumer interests and drove innovative
approaches to getting broadband technology out to
people -- such as broadband over power lines, WiFi
Hotspots, Cable broadband and DSL. These
competitive alternatives expanded affordable
broadband options to all Americans and helped
narrow the digital divide. From campaigning for the
right to keep your phone number when switching
wireless carriers, to fighting to block unwanted
telemarketing calls with a Do-Not-Call list, to
cautiously policing the airwaves of indecency, Mr.
Powell put consumers on the forefront in this
exciting and dynamic
marketplace.
Chairman Powell previously served as the Chief of
Staff of the Antitrust Division in the Department
of Justice. In that capacity, he advised the
Assistant Attorney General on substantive antitrust
matters and managed the
division.
Before joining the Antitrust Division, Mr. Powell
was an associate in the law firm of O'Melveny &
Myers, and just prior to joining the firm clerked
for the Honorable Harry T. Edwards, Chief Judge of
the United States Court of Appeals for the District
of Columbia
Circuit.
Before starting his legal career, Mr. Powell served
as a policy advisor to Secretary of Defense,
Richard B. Cheney. In addition, his experience
includes military service as an armored cavalry
officer in the United States Army. While on duty,
Mr. Powell was seriously injured in a training
accident and -- after spending a year in the
hospital -- was retired from service.
Mr. Powell graduated in 1985 from the College of
William and Mary with a degree in Government. He
earned his J.D. from Georgetown University Law
Center.
Mr. Powell currently serves on the Board of
Visitors of both the College of William and Mary
and the Georgetown University Law Center. He is
currently serving three months as a Senior Fellow
of the Communications and Society Program of the
Aspen Institute.
Mr. Powell is married to Jane Knott Powell. They
live with their two children, Jeffrey and Bryan, in
Fairfax Station, Virginia. MORE

Carly Fiorina
Former Chairman & CEO, HP Presentation:
Tuesday, October 25th, 9:30am to 10:15am
Throughout an
extraordinary career in business, Carly Fiorina has
successfully blazed new trails, taken risks and
defied the odds. As the former chairman and chief
executive officer of global technology solutions
provider Hewlett-Packard, she brought all of her
skills to bear to write a new chapter in the life
of a historic
company.
After joining HP in
July 1999, Fiorina led the reinvention of the
company many associate with the birth of Silicon
Valley, returning HP to its roots of innovation and
inventiveness. Fiorina successfully led HP's
controversial merger with Compaq Computer Corp.,
now recognized as the most successful high-tech
merger in
history.
In keeping with more
than six decades of HP corporate stewardship, and
during a time when corporations make up 51 of the
100 largest economies in the world, Fiorina called
for a new era of leadership, one in which corporate
leaders have an opportunity to redefine the role of
the corporation, to use profit engines to raise the
capabilities, extend the hopes, and extinguish
despair of people across the
globe.
Fiorina took an
unconventional route to becoming CEO of a leading
technology company, earning a bachelor's degree in
Medieval history and philosophy from Stanford
University. Fiorina holds a master's degree in
business administration from the Robert H. Smith
School of Business at the University of Maryland at
College Park, Md., and a master of science degree
from MIT's Sloan
School.
Prior to joining HP,
Fiorina spent nearly 20 years at AT&T and
Lucent Technologies, where she held a number of
senior leadership positions and directed Lucent's
initial public offering and subsequent spin-off
from
AT&T.
Fiorina was named an
Honorary Fellow of the London Business School in
July 2001. She has been honored with the 2002
Appeal of Conscience Award and the 2003 Concern
Worldwide "Seeds of Hope" Award in recognition of
her worldwide efforts to make global citizenship a
priority for business.
The Private Sector
Council honored Fiorina with its 2004 Leadership
Award for her contributions to improving the
business of government. The White House appointed
her to the U.S. Space Commission to advise it on
the nation's space science agenda and contribute a
broad range of high-tech expertise. Fiorina also
sat on the New York Stock Exchange's executive
board.
Fiorina has
previously served on the boards of Cisco Systems,
Kellogg Company and Merck & Company.
