“I have always believed that books are one of the most meaningful forms of diplomacy.”
What happens when an EU Ambassador brings geopolitics, literature, and AI into the same conversation?
On August 26, EU Ambassador Jovita Neliupšienė will join us at the San Francisco Public Library and at UC Berkeley for two conversations about geopolitics, culture, and the future of technology. She’s also bringing with her a collection of books selected by herself and 27 EU Member States Ambassadors in Washington, D.C., as a symbolic gift for American people marking America’s 250th anniversary. The books along with letters from each Ambassador will be on display during the events.
