Among the speakers that day will be Oprah Winfrey, Billie Jean King, Diane Sawyer, Sandra Day O’Connor, and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, along with a host of others.
Delfín, an 18-year veteran of the outdoor industry who has trekked the Inca Trail twice and is a winner of the Panamanian National Bouldering Competition, has an M.A. from UC Berkeley and a Ph.D. from Stanford. She is a member of the Outdoor Industries Women's Coalition.
