Here’s a 9-minute video interview I conducted Wednesday afternoon with Marnie Webb, co-CEO of TechSoup and NetSquared, at the close of the third annual NetSquared conference in the conference center at Cisco in San Jose, Calif. (This year’s theme was "remixing the web for social change." Here are links to the sessions and attendees, and here are the 21 featured projects voted on by the community out of hundreds of nominees — and the winners.)
Marnie talks about the kinds of community and corporate contributions to these groups that NetSquared and TechSoup (160 employees) help enable. NetSquared has become a huge event in the nonprofit and social change communities, drawing dozens of speakers and 400 participants over 2 1/2 days.
My partner at Ourmedia.org and I will be meeting with management of TechSoup in the coming days to discuss how we might be able to collaborate.
Apologies for the noise in some parts of the interview.
