Culture, Religion and Technology (CRT)

October 22, 2025

As of 10/16/205 - This event is sold out.

We are hosting CRT - Culture, Religion and Technology, take III - in honor of Charlie Kirk.

Vator, IronGate VC, Freedom Foundation, Index Technologies Group and We Over Me will be hosting the next: Culture, Religion, and Technology 2025 on October 22, 2025 at Mar-a-Lago.

We are living in surreal times with ideological warfare dividing the country. Technology has much to do with how information is pulling people vehemently apart. Cultural norms are being thrown out the window as traditionalists fight against a movement toward an egalitarian utopia.

Join us as we discuss culture, religion, technology, education, national security and free speech. In light of the tragic murder of Charlie Kirk, and recognizing that he was scheduled to speak at CRT, we are hosting this event in honor of him.

Keynote speaker: Devin Nunes, CEO of Trump Media and Technology; Chair of the President’s Intelligence Advisory Committee

AGENDA

3:30pm - Registration! Welcome and Opening remarks (pool side) - Paul Martino and Bambi Francisco Roizen (CRT event founders)

4:00pm-4:15 | The future of national security - Description: Religious freedom and national security are intertwined. Without the freedom to exercise free will, nations can become vulnerable to corruption. Monolithic forces lead to censorship and a one-size-fits-all world that limits creativity and abundance. Society thrives when our free will is liberated. How do we invest in national security that protects this freedom? Moderator: Hamlet Yousef (Partner, IronGate); Panelists: Richard Newton III ( Lieutenant General, U.S. Air Force); Theo Wold (Senior Counselor, Palantir)

4:15pm-5:00pm | Future of education
Description: Public education is fraught with woke religious indoctrination and it’s driving academic underperformance and creating a generation of young adults who aren’t grounded in truth, humility and the ethics of hard work. What’s happened to our public school systems and what can we do to bring the marketplace of ideas to education? Moderator: Aaron Withe (CEO, Freedom Foundation); Panelists: Ryan Walters (CEO, Teacher Freedom Alliance), Michael McCoy (Chief of Staff, Turning Point); Dr. Corbin Hoornbeek (President, University of Northwestern St. Paul); Doug Napier (Executive Chairman, 1792); Willy Guardiola (Founder, Christian on a Mission)

5:00pm-6:00pm | Culture, Religion and Technology | Fireside Chat - Devin Nunes (CEO of Trump Media and Technology Group and Chair of the President’s Intelligence Advisory Committee) and Jon DuPrau (Managing Partner at Index Technologies Group)

6:00pm-7:30pm | Buffet Reception (Heavy hors d’ oeuvres and cocktails)
