The topic is pretty important to me, so I decided to share a slightly edited transcript for those who prefer text form.

But many of the sessions and “what’s next” debates will follow the Chatham House Rule — a gag order that prevents attendees from attributing information to speakers or sharing names or affiliations of other guests.
