Greenlights & Common Wealth Ventures

(Community Matters) Good meeting this morning at Greenlights, hosted and organized by Matt Kouri, to discuss ideas around advancing social enterprise in Austin. EF launched this conversation several months ago, inspired by a challenge Austin Venture’s Joe Aragona made to me last year.

Bill the author of The Cathedral Within, the very popular and enlightening book about society transformation and how we allocate our resources to effect community change.
