“Change is imminent. Global demand for fuel, food and other commodities will only continue to increase as the world's population and wealth rise. We must embrace revolutions in the industry if we want to stay competitive,” said Dr. Pearse Lyons, president and founder of Alltech.Since the first intelligible sentence was carried through telephone wire on March 10, 1876 in the rented top floor of a Boston boarding house, the world has been on a constant move to find the latest breakthroughs in technology. As Steve Jobs once said, “We’re just in the beginning stages of what will be a truly remarkable breakthrough for most people- as remarkable as the telephone.”These advances in technology will be showcased in Stay Curious: Hear About Tomorrow's Technologies Today, the theme of Alltech’s 2013 North American Lecture Tour. Speakers on the North American tour, taking place from Feb. 12- March 1, will explore how the latest technological developments can move the agriculture industry forward. “We believe there are some tremendous new opportunities to be seized by the ag industry, and we look forward to sharing these ideas on our 2013 Alltech North American Lecture Tour,” said Kevin McBride, Alltech southeast regional sales manager. “To quote Steve Jobs, ‘People with passion can change the world for the better.’” Complimentary lunch will be catered by Hill's BBQ & Catering featuring beef brisket, chicken, macaroni & cheese, green beans, potato casserole, rolls and scrumptious peach cobbler. 2013 Lecture Tour Ticket- FL 0.00
