Transatlantic Network 2020    

The Transatlantic Network 2020 is a network for action which brings together young influencers from business, civil society, the arts, science and media to revitalise transatlantic and global links for the future. Importantly, TN2020 reflects the changing demographics, idealogies and dynamics of Europe and North America.

TN2020 is now accepting applications for a new group of members to join the network. Accepted applicants will become full members of TN2020, which includes participation in the upcoming TN2020 Summit to be held in Chicago, USA in June 2010.

Who Are The TN2020 Members?

The network currently features 100 members from 21 different countries across the two continents.

Incredibly successful and networked in their own right, they recognise the value of multilateral collaboration and are eager to work globally to create positive social change.

Many of the members of TN2020 are already established in their fields - ranging from an LAPD cop focused on gang violence prevention to the 2007 British Female Inventor of the Year, and from a Kosovo activist in post-war civil society projects to the youngest elected member of the Welsh Assembly.

TN2020 members are selected on an annual basis via an open application process as well as through the programme's extensive network of partners.
