UNIVERSITY FOR A NIGHT,
NEW YORK, 2 Nov 2005
Embrace after David Rockefeller presented David Rockefeller Bridging Leadership Award to James Wolfensohn
United in Diversity Forum would never be if not for the strong support of former President of the World Bank
James Wolfensohn’s from the founding stages. Tonight, at University for a Night organized by

It is a meaningful night for UID as it was Synergos Institute and the David Rockefeller family and especially Peggy Dulany, founder of Synergos Institute and Advisor to UID who made the initial connection.
