Today the global community stands witness to a momentous time in history where progressive change is not only necessary, but imminent. At NetSquared, we recognize that mandate and believe the social Web is key to making change. NetSquared works toward this goal by mobilizing individuals and communities, providing Web-based tools, and awarding financial support to leverage social action projects.

Headquartered in San Francisco, California, NetSquared - an initiative of nonprofit TechSoup Global - has worked internationally since 2005. In that time we’ve:

• Fostered monthly face-to-face meetups for social innovators in 25 cities around the globe and growing
• Incubated hundreds of social action projects in various stages of development
• Awarded over $240,000 in financial support through prized-based Challenges
• Provided a platform for cross-sector collaboration
• And much, much more
  

So how do we do it?

Well, it’s not just us. Not by a long shot. While the NetSquared Team organizes and facilitates ongoing prize-based Open Innovation Challenges, offline monthly events (Net Tuesdays) and a Global Conference to help propel the field forward, the heart of our work is rooted in NetSquared’s Community of social innovators – which includes business leaders, engineers, activists, nonprofit organizations and others - and that Community has developed organically over time.
