#BIF2017 enables participants to engage in stories of transformation, connecting with each other to accelerate our own transformation journeys and to make a difference in the world.  "At BIF, we believe that in order to transform our most vital community systems in education, healthcare, and government, we need to make our self-organized networks more purposeful," said Kaplan. 

At #BIF2017 on September 13-14, GoLocal will simultaneously live stream the entire Summit, 32 stories over 2 days, as well as featuring GoLocal interviews during the summit intermissions and breaks.

“We’ve been broadcasting with Saul for a series we’ve dubbed Mr. Innovation, airing every Monday afternoon, so the partnership with BIF seemed like a natural fit. We’re excited to to be a small part of BIF's amazing stories of transformation  and to be able to offer it to our viewers,” Josh Fenton, CEO and co-founder of GoLocal explains.
