Globeshakers: The Podcast


In partnership with Doug Kaye at IT Conversations, an on-line radio program focused on social innovation is about to hit the virtual airwaves.

Globeshakers is a program highlighting people who are transforming the world through technology, social enterprise and sustainable solutions. The host? Why it is the Accelerator's very own Tim Zak.
Each program he'll interview various species of "globeshakers" who work across the world and across industries, using innovation to shake up the status quo.
  • The Shakers: people on the ground working for social change.
  • The Movers: users of personal star power and influence to build buzz for a mighty cause.
  • Big Brains: the thoughts and theories are making a big splash.
  • Geeks for a Greater Good: the knowledge workers who harness the power of connected economies, embedded computing, robotics and smart mobs.
  • Policy Wonks: the insiders with an ear to the ground, listening for the legislative drumbeat.
  • Grease Monkeys: the foundations, nonprofits and consultants working under the hood of social engines.
And last--but by no means least--Zak will interview to those Enlightened Corporate Hacks who are true system-thinkers; who are shaking up the marketplace by crafting new language, sustainable business models, and, most important, global thinking.
Join us, won't you? At IT Conversations, coming Fall '05.

Stay tuned!
