Dear Participants,

On behalf of Arizona State University and NeXtAdvisors, I wanted to thank you for attending and contributing to what’s being called “the best education innovation conference ever.”

Against a backdrop of nationwide budget deficits and intense struggles over the future of education, the 2011 Education Innovation Summit brought together 600 thought leaders, education entrepreneurs, educators and investors to chart a course for an educational revolution driven by innovation. That’s a 60 percent jump in attendance over the conference’s first year, and included 119 investors, 229/78 representatives from small/large companies, and 172 attendees from the education, nonprofit, foundation or general interest sectors.

The next networking event will be on May 26, Wednesday, at Skysong.  We will have lunch ($15) and inXsol will be our presenting company.  More details to come.

The next networking and informational meeting of GAZeL will take place on Thursday February 18, 2010 at Skysong at 11:30 AM -1:00 PM. The speaker will be Amy Weibel and she will speak on
