This summer, the Nikola Tesla Inventors Club will be hosting an unprecedented three-day celebration in Philadelphia, PA, commemorating Nikola Tesla’s legacy and world vision. A welcome dinner reception will be held on July 10th, followed by a free conference and outdoor celebration at Philadelphia’s historic Independence Hall on July 11th and 12th. By far the most unrecognized mind of our time, Nikola Tesla’s brilliance resulted in the implementation of alternating current, the AC motor, wireless technology, and many other influential inventions that we now take for granted in the modern age. The Nikola Tesla Inventors Club wishes to provide an opportunity for Tesla enthusiasts, inventors, scientists, and free energy advocates to gather together in solidarity, reflection, and exploration. Exhibitions and demonstrations will be on display from individuals and organizations across the nation who are dedicated to exploring and pioneering free energy systems. We hope not only to commemorate Tesla’s legacy, but also to set the stage for a new energy paradigm in the service of human potential.
