mesh Keynote News: Jason Calacanis and Jessica Jackley Flannery

With mesh only three months away, we’re excited to announce the first two of our four keynote speakers.

We’re thrilled to have well-known entrepreneur and Mahalo founder and CEO Jason Calacanis as our business keynote. Calacanis has been an active, influential and high-profile player within the online world, and we’re really looking forward to hearing his thoughts on the entrepreneurial, online and venture capital landscape.

We’re also very excited having Jessica Jackley Flannery as our society keynote. Jackley Flannery is co-founder – along with her husband, Matt, – of Kiva, the world’s first person-to-person micro-lending online service that lets individuals lend directly to entrepreneurs in the developing world.

We’re honored that Calacanis and Jackley Flannery are coming to mesh. They are extremely well-regarded thought-leaders that will help set the tone for another great conference.

Stay tuned for more exciting mesh news in the weeks to come.

Excellent news. Only one question – will Jason arrive in the Tesla?

I didn’t think you could get Tesla in Canada yet.

Kiva is an amazing project. Exactly the kind of thing we look to help out with where I work.
