Back in May, a group of NGO founders – including two Gates alumni – put on a virtual coffee house to discuss youth and social entrepreneurship.

A live recording of the webinar is now available from http://sites.google.com/site/gatescoffeehouse.

Moderated by Philip Rucker, National Correspondent for The Washington Post, the virtual coffee house included panelists from a range of areas linked to youth and social entrepreneurship and had several hundred listeners log on, many posing questions to the panel.
