Big ideas, big results: Nominations open for 2011 PopTech Social Innovation Fellows

Ollie Wilder ( Bio / Posts ) | Tuesday, February 01, 2011 UTC

Know an innovator working to solve a major global challenge?

Now’s your chance to help speed up his or her progress by submitting a nomination for the 2011 PopTech Social Innovation Fellows program.

We’re looking for 10 to 20 world-changers who are ready to accelerate their path to greater social impact. Fellows attend a five-day, all-expense paid training program followed by the annual PopTech conference, which includes an opportunity to present on stage in front of an audience of thought leaders. They gain the tools, insights, visibility and social network they need to help grow their efforts to new heights.

Check out the call for nominations as well as the 2008, 2009 and 2010 classes to see if the fit looks right, and then fill out a nomination – or a self-nomination – at poptech.org/nominate.

Nominations will be open through March 31. Generous support from the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation and the Rita Allen Foundation help make this program possible – and so do you, by nominating someone with a big idea and the right stuff to take it to scale.
