Some of the thought leaders lined up include presidential historian and Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Jon Meacham; Emmy award-winning broadcast journalist, Ted Koppel; owner of the Los Angeles Clippers, Steve Ballmer; and addresses from Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan and Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.
