Bill Gates: Non-profits vs. for-profit businesses

on August 6, 2010

(I’m reporting all this week at the Techonomy conference in Lake Tahoe, California. For more coverage, check out the Techonomy blog.)

At the Techonomy conference in San Francisco, Bill Gates closed the event and answered questions from the audience. One woman asked why non-profits can’t behave more like for-profit businesses. Gates said that wasn’t necessarily the best idea.

  1. Bill and Steve together again
  2. Sean Parker on Facebook Causes and the value of Chat Roulette
  3. Nicholas Negroponte on the latest success of One Laptop per Child
  4. Wired’s Kevin Kelly on “What Technology Wants”
  5. How do you manage the new empowered workforce?
