Hive Los Angeles Logistics
On Friday, December 8th, leaders like you from 47 countries around the world will convene in Los Angeles for three inspiring days of ideas, meaningful connection, and celebration as we work together to create a more conscious world and join a lifelong community of purpose-driven leaders.
Over 1600 Hive alums from 115 countries are excited to welcome you into our global network of CEOs, leaders, entrepreneurs, investors, social innovators, and changemakers. We cannot wait to meet you — and for you to meet each other.
Below is some important information as you prepare for your Hive Global Leaders Program experience.
Facebook Group – We encourage you to start connecting with your peers via the December 2017 Hive Facebook group. Request an invite and we’ll add you to the group.
WhatsApp Group – We have created a WhatsApp Group for Hive LA attendees that you can use for communication during and after the event. Join the group here.

How should I prepare myself for Hive?
We encourage you to bring your open, authentic and compassionate selves. It is worthwhile to reflect on what you’re most passionate about, what change you want to make in the world, and why you feel you’re alive on this planet. Please spend time in advance reflecting on the answers to these questions.
