From June 16-22, Echoing Green will host an online interview series with mobile technology leaders to discuss the current and future position of mobile in social innovation. Each day, we'll focus on a specific branch of the field, including Learning, Health, Finance, Journalism, Information, and Advocacy. The series will culminate in a global Twitter chat on June 22, 2011 from 1-2:30pm EST.
We look forward to a meaningful conversation with you and our confirmed participants on the panel.
