Last month, Scott Mattoon shared his thoughts on the Role of Open Source Technology and Sustainability in San Francisco. He did a great job connecting the dots between open source technology and (very) current social changes that are making a huge impact on the world. We asked him to join us again in Silicon Valley for July, and he said yes!

Scott  serves on the Board of Directors of Architecture for Humanity and works  for Sun Microsystems as Chief Architect for Western U.S. Sales.  He is an active advocate for open source and sustainable business.  Scott is technical liaison for Sun to the TED community and serves as lead systems architect for Sun's support of TED prize winners Cameron Sinclair, Neil Turok and Bill Clinton.  A student of sustainability, Scott stitches ecological impact awareness, energy analysis, and long term thinking into everything he does.  In addition to his time at Sun, Scott's career has spanned several leadership positions with companies helping to shape business and society on the Internet including 4charity.com, Live365.com, Cybersource, and NeXT.   A glimpse of his sensibilities relating to open source and sustainable business are revealed on his downstream blog.

The July Silicon Valley EcoTuesday event will be held on Tuesday, July 28th at 6:30 pm at the Domain Hotel in Silicon Valley. Please RSVP and let us know you'll coming!
