The roster of NetSquared Advocates continues to grow and diversify, & we're proud to welcome two new supporters: Stuart Gannes & Karen Coppeck of Stanford's Digital Vision Program. 

In early 2002 Gannes was recruited by Stanford University as the inaugural Director of the Digital Vision Program at the Center for the Study of Language and Information (CSLI). Over the past two and a half years the DV program has evolved from an independent fellowship experience to an integrated prototyping course that focuses on technology innovation and social entrepreneurship. The goal is to support the design and concept-testing and sustainability modeling of technology solutions that address humanitarian needs in the developing world.

When most people think of Goodwill International, they probably don't think of cutting edge web-based technology. Yet with an international network of 80,000 employees, Goodwill sees the potential new technologies have to enable organizations with many affiliates to share information and coordinate activities like never before.

With its 21st Century Initiative, Goodwill has also made technology an important part of the training it provides to over 700,000 homeless, disabled, and otherwise disadvantaged individuals every year.
