Introducing the SoCap08 Blog Team

Over the last several days, I’ve been putting together an informal blog team of people who plan to write about next week’s conference.

We are inviting SoCap08 attendees to write about their experiences on the conference floor and in the sessions. We’re also inviting bloggers who are watching SoCap08 unfold from afar.

Our goal is to provoke a distributed conversation about the current state and potential of social capital markets. We’ll be using the SoCap08 blog to disseminate frequent round-ups of blog entries that talk about the issues raised at SoCap08.

We’re expecting the conversation will take place on many blogs and in many forums, including the NextBillion.net blog and the All Things Reconsidered blog over at JustMeans.

Below is a list of people who have confirmed they will be submitting at least one blog entry before, during or following SoCap08.

  • David Auerbach, Endeavor
  • Mark Beckford, Disruptive Leadership (and NextBillion Staff Writer)
  • Allan Benamer, Social Markets
  • Lucy Bernholtz, Philanthropy 2173
  • Michael Cayley, Social Capital Value Add
  • Charlene Chen, Haas School of Business
  • Cindy Chen, Haas School of Business
  • Travis Cummings, Great Bay Foundation
  • Champa Gujjanudu, Haas School of Business
  • Rob Katz, Acumen Fund and NextBillion.net
  • Clara Kuo, The Millennium Marketer
  • Paul Lamb, Man on a Mission consulting
  • Mike Lee, Haas School of Business
  • David Lehr, Mercy Corps (and NextBillion Staff Writer)
  • Graham Macmillan, VisionSpring
  • Roxanne Miller, Haas School of Business
  • Francisco Noguera, NextBillion.net
