Greetings CC Affiliates:

I recently spent a week at Singularity University <http://singularityu.org/>
(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:

   - site: http://singularityu.org/gsp16 (see the FAQ)
   - video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5RhlnfU-yU
   - 2016 GSP dates: June 18 - August 28, 2016
   - application deadline: Monday, February 22nd at Midnight PST
   - application:
   https://singularityu.slideroom.com/#/login/program/28326/6Myv01TGi6
   - apply as an individual or as a team
   - location: NASA Research Park in Mountain View, California (located in
   Silicon Valley)
   - fully funded by Google:
   http://singularityu.org/su-press/singularity-university-announces-google-support-for-increased-global-access-and-diversity-in-tech/

   - 2015 GSP projects: http://singularityu.org/gsp15/

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
