When technology is leveraged around passion and purpose for the sake of results not profits, powerful things can happen. While most non-profits are not known for technology, some are, and they are defying the traditional business models that drive technology.
Questions
Answered:
  1. What is the difference between being results-focused or profits-focused?
  2. How does focusing on results produce the best results?
  3. What are some of the most powerful examples of results-focused success and why?
  4. How does focusing on results produce the best results?
  5. How can a for-profit organization be results-focused first?
  6. When profits are necessary, how do you find the right balance between focusing on results and profits?
  7. Often results-focused organizatons go "free" or open source. How does this create greater potential for success?
  8. Are "free" models sustainable?
  9. Everyone likes "free," but if free business models kill off valuable paid alternatives, does it do more harm than good?
  10. Who are the future trailblazers of results-focused technology and why?

Traditional media needs a new business model. This could be good for dialogue. Looks helpful for anyone contemplating move from corporate world to ministry.

every organization, profit and non-profit, are all going gaga over results and measurables, so this has got to be a great conversation

Happy to see this panel here - I got so sick of hearing the word "monetize" at SXSW last year! This should be a refreshing change.
