JEF Talks: Ideas Worth Believing


JEF is the Orville Corporation’s nonprofit arm devoted to Ideas Worth Believing. It started out in Stratum 40 as a brainstorming sesh bringing people and ideas together from three discrete fields of thought: Jobation, Epitropy, Fulsomeness.
  JEF Talks brings together the most fascinating thinkers and doers found, who are challenged to give the public a good talking-to.
  Orville believes passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives, and ultimately, the universe. They are building a clearinghouse of wisdom from the world’s most galvanized thought leaders, and also a community of the curious to engage in heretofore unspoken ideas and with each other.
