Brooke Farrell, Co-Founder of RecycleMatch, Named to PopTech Social Innovation Fellows Class of 2010
PopTech Social Innovation Fellows are visionary change agents who are incubating high-potential solutions to pressing global challenges. Fellows work in both the for-profit and not-for-profit worlds, with a far-reaching impact – in places such as Thailand, Liberia, Pakistan, Chile, and across the US. They are the world-changers of tomorrow. PopTech is a unique innovation network – a global community of cutting-edge leaders, thinkers, and doers from many different disciplines, who come together to explore the social impact of new technologies, the forces of change shaping our future, and new approaches to solving the world’s most significant challenges. We are known for our thriving community of thought-leaders, breakthrough innovation programs, visionary annual conferences and deep media and storytelling capabilities.According to Time Magazine’s Hero of the Planet, Geoffry Ballard, PopTech is “the single best conference about new ideas I have ever attended.” A Global 50 CMO and EVP calls it “amazing and profound. PopTech changed my company and my life.” Others simply refer to PopTech as “Davos for cool people.” PopTech enjoys extensive press coverage and active collaboration with leading global companies and institutions.
Each year, PopTech generates dozens of major stories in the world press about our initiatives and partners. The New York Times calls PopTech “enduring, not-to-miss… drawing big names who reach for big ideas,” and BusinessWeek says PopTech “has a good chance of living up to its lofty goal of changing the world.”
