Last week, I had the honor of presenting in the Entrepreneurs Showcase at the National Slow Money gathering in San Francisco, CA. The conference brought together 750 people from foundations, banks, farm and food businesses, academia, the world of finance, (you name it!) to learn from each other. Inspired by the vision of Inquiries into the Nature of Slow Money: Investing As If Food, Farms and Fertility Mattered, published in 2009, the Slow Money Alliance is bringing people together around a new conversation about money that is too fast, about finance that is disconnected from people and place, about how we can begin fixing our economy from the ground up... starting with food.
