I recommend the University of Colorado’s Conference on World Affairs. It’s been going on for 60 years and has had many noteworthy participants over the years. It is free and open to the public.

Already we've had the architects of the Standard Hotel (Todd Schliemann) and the Guggenheim's brand new restaurant (Andre Kikoski) speak, with Massimo Vignelli scheduled for January.
