Presentation on Microcredit (2/20/2005)

I had the opportunity to make a general presentation on microcredit, Mifos, and the Reuters Digital Vision Program Sunday at the First Congregational Church in Palo Alto. Jeff Mattan, who was the first volunteer to help with the project, and I spoke for about 45 minutes, fielding a great range of questions from an audience of more than 30 people.

The presentation is available as a PowerPoint Show. (I see that slide "builds" don't get captured here, so in slide #15, The Challenges of Microcredit, you don't see the red arrows pointing at "Information Systems" and "Capital" as the two key areas that computers can help to address.)
