here's an extract from a conversation on this
ANYONE know of Qualcomm Xprize?
I ask because it seems to link youth to emedicine (a key love of yunus and of grameen intel) ; the first in the yunus-edited series of youth's viral impossible postcards (attached) is on free nursing colleges

the competition teams look quite cool http://www.qualcommtricorderxprize.org/teams
one of them was recognised by white house while being 15 year old marylander

Young Professionals Versus Old Professionals has become a critical dynamic in analysis every value chain that isnt sustainang youth - so I wonder for which practice areas we can have searched out young professional editorial teams before atlanta- back in 2006 when mostofa and I though that was what yunus wanted youth forums to do - Eva Vertes was willing to help. Any ideas anyone?
