IamNext -- Join the Next Billion Network
About IamNext	English (USA)
Within the next three years, another billion people will make regular use of cell phones, continuing the fastest adoption of a new technology in history. Soon, this next billion will make their voice heard—and connect to the global information network. This will unleash a wave of entrepreneurship, collaboration and wealth creation, turning the newly connected into a powerful force in the world economy. The kind of world that emerges from this transformation will depend on our ability to recognize it as an opportunity. You can be part of this grassroots, connected revolution. Join the Next Billion Network; our goal is to deploy innovative mobile technologies that help people reduce friction in their local markets from the bottom up. Match your skills to this unprecedented challenge, and come build a new kind of network. Based at the MIT Media Lab, the Next Billion Network is a collaborative initiative of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
