The summit, a calibration between Vice News and Tina Brown Live Media, featured journalists, politicians, ex-convicts, prison wardens, psychologists, and researchers, focused on the 2.4 million people who are incarcerated in the US, and the personal, social, and financial epidemics that exist as a result of America's prison system.

Some highlights from the day include a conversation with New York City Police Commissioner Bill Bratton on what crimes should mandate sentences, and a discussion on "Surviving The Time" in prison featuring Piper Kerman, author of "Orange is the New Black: My Year in a Women's Prison."

Flashpoint Digital supplied the cameras, live-streaming equipment, and operators needed to successfully produce this five hour conference which was viewed live by nearly 10,000 people.
