The White Dove Conference Hall at Nave-Shalom (Wahat al-Salam)

I will discuss a particular case of the AdS3/CFT2 higher spin duality which connects to a putative tensionless limit of AdS3 string theories. I will describe how the higher spin symmetries provide a natural way to organize the extended stringy symmetries of such a limit.
