Uplift Academy Conference Oct 4 NYC

On Wednesday Brent and I participated in the Uplift Academy Conference/Workshop NYC. This was a follow-up to that larger conference I attended in Boston last year with the theme of Networked Theory of a Better World.We were excited to meet and discuss some of our ideas/projects-in-progress (10%Club, CDV) with a group of like-minded inspiring folks. The theme for this workshop was 'New Media for Infectious Good'.

Just a few pics and links-
