Greetings CC Affiliates:

I recently spent a week at Singularity University (SU); it was an amazing experience.

Their mission is to "educate, inspire and empower leaders to apply exponential technologies to address humanity's grand challenges."

I was a student, teacher (re: CC & OER) and guide - helping SU's faculty and executive team adopt an open licensing policy and open practices.

While there, I learned about Singularity University’s Global Solutions Program (GSP): http://singularityu.org/gsp16

This is a 10-week program, all expenses paid, to solve one of 11 global grand challenges:
If one or more CC Affiliates are accepted to this program, and CC licenses are a core part of their project, Creative Commons will pay for their flights (if flights are not covered by the Google grant).

Attending Singularity University is a life changing experience - I hope some of you will apply.

I am happy to provide a "letter of reference" if useful.

Warmest regards ... your colleague,

Cable
