A few updates about the Green Innovation for Business Unconferences that are coming up.
Hurry Up & Register
People are starting to register, especially for the Washington DC event, but there is still plenty of room at all of them. Don't hesitate, do it now! Here are links to the registration pages:
- June 11 in Washington, DC at Google DC
- June 22 in Boston, MA at Microsoft's R&D Center in Cambridge
- August 5 in the San Francisco Bay Area/Silicon Valley at eBay
- September 16 in Austin, TX at 3M
(Hint: You can get an idea of who is attending each event by skimming the list at the bottom of each registration page. It gives organization and title of each registrant.)
Let's Discuss What We Should Discuss
Since the Unconferences are "open space" format events, there is no fixed agenda. Those of use who attend will decide what to talk about after we arrive. But that doesn't mean we can't do some homework in advance. Ashoka is offering one opportunity with their Social Entrepreneurs Chat on Wednesday June 3 (4 to 6pm ET). The general topic is entrepreneurship and the environment but they have encouraged us to discuss topics for the Unconferences as well.
Another opportunity is through the event wiki and community site. Even if you can't attend an event, please join and participate online. (You'll have to register with wetpaint to participate.)
