I am proud to be co-producing the Silicon Valley Human Rights Conference, perhaps one of THE most important and timely conferences you’re going to be invited to all year. It’s a outcome-based event designed to help the tech industry better plan for and manage the human rights implications of their technologies in our increasingly plugged-in world. It’s taking place on October 25 & 26 at the Mission Bay Conference Center in SF and is sponsored by Google, Facebook, Skype, Mozilla, Yahoo!, The Ford Foundation, among others. As I’ve been telling people — this conference is turning into a really big deal.  Details & speaker list @ http://www.rightscon.org
I have two bones to throw at this point in time …
1) Although the program is pretty much wrapped up, we left a few open spaces to consider …. YOU. We’re inviting tech company leaders in the SF New Tech community to tell us why they should have a speaking slot at this amazing conference. If you have a unique story to tell about how your code affected human rights, helped spark (or quell) a revolution, or made life on earth better for a lot of disenfranchised people, please tell us more by visiting here: http://bit.ly/sfnt-hrc4u You may find yourself on stage and in the spotlight with some really important and powerful folks!
