Ugotrade's profile Tish Shute / Member since April 2007 / Last seen 5 months ago
My idea for a project called Ugotrade came out of my experience working on a proposal to bring ICT training centers to the Tibetan Communities in exile in Southern India.
I imagine Ugotrade as a global internet reality/virtual reality show. I see Ugotrade bringing on grid folks - innovative technologists, social entrepreneurs, bloggers, broadband video pioneers, and other www2 stars - together with off grid pioneers as they reinvent global trading from the back of a yak, a canoe on the Amazon, and a houseboat in New Orleans. I hope Ugotrade will evolve Dr Yunus Nobel Prize winning model of micro lending into investment in local wireless communications, and bring visibility to off grid communities. In my vision, social entrepreneurs from all over the world, and the gurus of the so called digital democracy - broad band video pioneers, bloggers, rockstar internet marketers, celebrities of online social media - will come together with off-grid entrepreneurs in pioneering projects.
Well this blog is my first step!
