This will be my final post on the Wikipreneurship blog, thank you to everyone who has been reading and commenting on this blog. Also a big thanks to all those who sponsored me for Movember. I guess the idea of this blog was to follow my progress toward starting a new venture and to some extent I have now done so. The new venture is called 273 connectivity it is a 'crowdsourced, ad supported, philanthropic venture capital fund to help Kiva.org microfinance aspiring entrepreneurs in the developing world.
You can read the full description of the idea at http://www.273connectivity.com but the basic idea is that 2 of my class mates and I have set up a lending team through Kiva.org (a site that helps people microfinance aspiring entrepreneurs in the developing world). We aim to inspire you each week with tales of innovation, entrepreneurship, technology, science, education (and maybe even some fashion tips...) in return we are asking you to join the 273 team and lend $US25 to an entrepreneur of your choice. We will then pay you a dividend from any profit we generate through advertising on our site and you will get to join our exclusive network of like minded individuals.
I hope you all join me there.
Steve
