PROVIDENCE – Epic Decade is hosting an “Inspired Conversation Series” on May 3 as part of R.I. Commerce Corp.’s public engagement strategy.
The series will be held as part of the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce’s Garage 2016 at the Rhode Island School of Design’s Chace Center.
The topic of the first conversation will focus on the “Future of Visualizing Information” – the space in which technology and user-centric experience design enable and impact business growth by finding new ways to communicate, identify and attract customers through storytelling.

It begins at 3 p.m. and will feature speakers Nicholas Felton and Scott Berkey.
Felton, a RISD graduate, was one of the lead designers of Facebook’s timeline. Berkey joined Dassault Systèmes in Johnston in 2006 as vice president of worldwide operations within the company’s SIMULIA brand, and was named CEO of SIMULIA in 2008.

“The goal of the series is to invite Rhode Islanders to take part in discourse on the topics that matter most to the future of the state,” a news release about the event reads.

The Inspired Conversation Series, according to the release, pairs “nationally recognized thought leaders with local thought leaders in key sectors to present, discuss and open a compelling dialogue with the public.”
