Peter Diamandis is the chairman and CEO of the X PRIZE Foundation. He is scheduled to speak Thursday at 7 p.m. at the Plumley Armory on the school’s Northfield campus.
Diamandis is co-author of a book which lays out a plan by which the world will soon be able to meet and exceed the basic needs of every man, woman and child on the planet.
