    SIME Non-Profit will run parallel to SIME Stockholm and is open to leaders from organizations that are helping others. We have created SIME Non-Profit to provide NGOs, non-profit initiatives and social entrepreneurs access to best practice in the use of digital media and IT technology.

    It is our hope and ambition that increased knowledge sharing will enable organizations and social entrepreneurs to help millions more.

    Why are we telling you this?

    Well, first of all you can help nominate organizations that should attend, ask them to click this link and apply. It’s free for organizations and individuals that meet the non-profit criteria.

    Secondly, we want you to TAKE ON A CHALLENGE.

    On the site, meet the supporters, we have asked some fantastic organizations to present to you their biggest challenges when it comes to staying on top of new technologies and how to utilize social media.
