Events: They're Beaming NSVF Summit 2014 To Boston This Year
The NSVF Summit in San Francisco is next week, and if you're not invited tough luck.
But you can observe and participate virtually. The public agenda is here. Lots of pre-reading here. Blog here. Twitter and hashtag (@NSVF #NSVFSummit), too.
And apparently they're going to be livestreaming at least parts of it as well (like they did last year).
Some of the headliners include John King, New York State Commissioner of Education, and Joanne Weiss, former Chief of Staff, US Department of Education, and Deputy Secretary of Education Jim Shelton. Other highlights include speakers like Bryan Stevenson of the Equal Justice Initiative, a TEACH video booth, 20 NSVFseed grantees.
The big new wrinkle this year is that they're trying out a satellite event sort of like TEDx. The New England SummitX invite is here.
Previous summits (see below) have included tense words between Michelle Rhee and Randi Weingarten, proposed COPPA changes from Mark Zuckerberg, and spacey interview questions and robotic sound bite responses from Laurene Powell Jobs and Rahm Emanuel. Reed Hastings famously declared that charters weren't cutting it, and Rocketship said it would open schools in DC if Kaya Henderson would give them space. Waiting for Superman was screened in Spring 2010. Sometimes, people wear fun outfits.
