World Science Festival in New York

The second annual World Science Festival will be taking place in New York next month. One of the speakers there will be Ben Schwegler.

Walt Disney Imagineering R+D’s Chief Scientist Ben Schwegler invents and builds new technologies that make theme parks and resorts the stuff of dreams and adventure. The creator of the Simulation-based Design Group, he is particularly interested in the development of sustainable engineering techniques. He was instrumental in the creation of the most energy-efficient theme park ever built as well as a new generation of environmentally-friendly fireworks.
