Calgary doctor and entrepreneur Breanne Everett (left) is a finalist in a prestigious UK innovation forum. She conceived of and created shoes that help prevent damage to the feet of people with diabetes. She is one of the top 12 finalists in the Pitch@Palace Commonwealth Competition. It means she will be able to pitch her innovative medical technology to an international audience of entrepreneurs, tech experts, media representatives and investors at St. James’ Palace in London.

Finally, Zeynep Tufekci is part of a TV program discussing privacy and freedom. There seems little knowledge among Facebook users that knowledge (about them) is power (in the marketplace). Do people care? Should they?
