To that end, we are launching the Collaboration Think Tank Network that brings influencers and hundreds of thought leaders from each of the five institutions - governments, businesses, non-profits, faith-based orgs, and schools -- to form teams that work together to provide actionable solutions to achieve the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of United Nations.
