We are so excited to be part of Pop!Tech community this year. Pop!Tech brings together scientists, educators, activists, designers, musicians, artists, and other innovators for a magical conference in Camden, Maine each October. WE CARE Solar was selected for a Pop!Tech fellowship, which includes a 5 day retreat that aims to accelerate the impact of “disruptive innovations.” I had the privilege of being were part of this amazing learning community – sharing ideas, challenges, and frustrations with sixteen other social innovation fellows striving make a difference in the world. We are all presenting our innovations to the larger Pop!Tech community later this week. You can learn about this year’s social innovation fellows at http://www.poptech.org/class2010. You can also watch the Pop!Tech conference live, which this year has the following theme: Brilliant Accidents, Necessary Failures, and Improbable Breakthroughs.
