Celebrating a decade of innovation, PINC, Sarasota’s most creative day, returns to the Sarasota Opera House on Thursday, December 5, 2024.
About this Event

An initiative of DreamLarge and presented by Ringling College of Art & Design, PINC promises a day of intellectual indulgence, featuring 10 thought-provoking speakers from every imaginable (and unimaginable) discipline. As we celebrate 10 years in Sarasota, this year’s lineup is designed to spark fresh ideas, inspire bold thinking, and leave you with a renewed sense of community.

PINC brings together thought leaders, innovators, creative thinkers, entrepreneurs, specialists, designers, artists, scientists, and anyone looking to stimulate their minds, hearts, and spirits.

It's a celebration of everything that makes our community unique – and it’s all happening this December. Don't miss out on this sell-out event!

The first four speakers announced are:

  • Saroo Brierley – International bestselling author of A Long Way Home, Brierley’s remarkable story of being separated from his family in India at age five, and his 25-year journey to reunite with his birth mother using Google Earth, became the inspiration for the Oscar-nominated film Lion.
  • Phil Klotzbach – Renowned meteorologist and climate scientist, Klotzbach leads the Tropical Meteorology Project at Colorado State University. His highly regarded hurricane forecasts are widely cited by major outlets like CNN and National Geographic, shaping public understanding of tropical storms and climate change.
  • Sonita Alizadeh – Afghan rapper and activist whose powerful music challenges child marriage and advocates for women’s rights. Her viral song “Brides for Sale” brought global attention to her fight against forced marriages, sparking widespread conversations on gender equality.
  • Laura Krantz – Acclaimed journalist and creator of Wild Thing, a top 50 podcast blending science, culture, and curiosity. Wild Thing has been featured in Rolling Stone, The New York Times, and Smithsonian Magazine for its compelling storytelling on topics like Bigfoot and space exploration.
