Join the First Live Social Entrepreneurs Chat on Twitter

Published April 01, 2009 @ 01:25PM PT

Join myself and Tom Dawkins from Ashoka right now on Twitter as we host the first live Social Entrepreneurship Chat.

The idea is pretty simple: once a month we'll "get together" on Twitter using the common hashtag #socentchat to discuss a specific topic. For this first session, we're talking about reflections out of the Skoll World Forum 2009.

Here's the official information from our Squidoo Page:

#SocEntChats is a Twitter-based real-time discussion on social entrepreneurship themed around specific issues/areas/events each month. It is designed for current and aspiring social entrepreneurs, funders, media and supporters to share their ideas, discuss the state of the field, identify the latest innovations and pinpoint areas requiring more exploration.

#SocEntChats provides an opportunity not just for conversation but for connections leading to collaboration and impact. It will bring together a diverse range of participants who care about our future and are prepared to be part of the solutions towards a better world.

#SocEntChats is presented by Ashoka: Innovators for the Public (www.ashoka.org) and hosted by Ashoka social media guy Tom Dawkins (@AshokaTweets / @tomjd) and Change.org Social Entrepreneurship blogger (http://socialentrepreneurship.change.org) Nathaniel Whitmore (@socialentrprnr).
