i-genius Learning

We have just launched i-genius 'Learning' channel, which will follow different themes every few months, designed to help you in different aspects of your work. This month we are focusing on how to secure funding and raise finance. Be it for starting up a business, financing a specific aspect of your work (or indeed, for coming to the i-genius summit in Thailand) we outline a step-by-step guide to raising the money!

i-genius Learning is designed to be interactive - a place to share what you know and what you need to know with others. You can upload your own work, comment on others' experiences, and start discussions based around the central theme. By working together with many members contributing, we hope to develop expertise and knowledge from around the world on a series of issues which everyone can contribute to and benefit from. We also welcome suggestions about what the next theme should be... Let us know your thoughts at team@i-genius.org.

i-genius Update

We want your news! Anything exciting that has happened with your work? Got an event coming up you want to share with other members? Won an award? Got something to say? Write it down, send it in to team@i-genius.org, and have your work featured on the i-genius homepage. Whether it is a piece about you, or something that is happened in your community, please share it with the i-genius world community of members in 80 countries.

Until next time...
