THE AGE OF DEFINITIONS

DON’T MISS THESE INCREDIBLE INTERVIEWS WITH GREAT FIGURES OF THE CONTEMPORARY WORLD!

The Age of Definitions is a program of analysis to adopt a new way of thinking, acting and organizing in this 21st century society.

In Vicente Fox Quesada’s long career, he has had countless encounters with world leaders, from high symbols of the struggle for human rights to great entrepreneurial figures contributing ideas to the world of business and global connection, from Nobel Peace Laureates to politicians of current and persistent influence in the world.

Some of these great personalities are Nobel Peace Laureates H.H. Dalai Lama, Rigoberta Menchu, Tawakkul Karman, Muhammad Yunus and Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, former Latin American presidents Laura Chinchilla, Eduardo Frei Ruiz-Tagle, spiritual leaders such as Deepak Chopra, Marianne Williamson, Isha Judd, and many others.

These prominent people are an excellent subject for the growth of the Centro Fox, as well as the personality and image of former President Vicente Fox.

You can tune in to the program on the second Thursday of every month on TVAzteca at 11:00 pm. If you missed them, you can watch them all on our YouTube channel.
