Among dozens of momentous events set to play out in the weeks ahead, many are already underway, or will commence with the dawn of August. A large number are also new in this edition. Among them are some of the world's most famous cultural and creative industry gatherings, set to welcome attendees to regional capitals around the planet virtually and/or in person, as well as countless conferences where innovation and mastery will soar to new heights. 

During this spectacular time of year, so many festivities invite us to adventure outdoors, which bodes especially well for new connections. According to Shakespeare, "One touch of nature makes the whole world kin."
