Join us for an evening that blends business insight, high-altitude adventure, and good company. Our September Fireside Chat features Pendar Khosravi and Russell Breckenridge, two friends and adventurers currently driving a rickshaw across the rugged terrain of the Indian Himalayas. They’re doing it for a cause close to their hearts—supporting the World Literacy Foundation in its mission to eradicate illiteracy.
In this intimate conversation, we’ll explore:
How they planned and prepared for this one-of-a-kind challenge
The business and leadership lessons they’ve learned on the road
The wildest, scariest, and most awe-inspiring moments so far
How adventure can drive purpose, connection, and impact
