Over 300 Cities Host Social Good Meetups

Written by Allyson Kapin | 2012/9/24

Mashable kicked off their third annual Social Good Summit Sept. 22nd in NYC. The summit runs though today, September 24th and explores the impact that technology is having on media, and how digital media is affecting our lives and changing the world.

The Social Good Summit brings together the brightest minds in media, including content creators, technology leaders, entrepreneurs, social media executives and journalists. And while many folks weren’t able to make the one-day conference in NYC over the weekend, over 300 cities across the U.S. and abroad are hosting Meetups today. Attendees will gather and answer the same question “How can new technology and new media create solutions for the biggest problems facing my community?”
