This past week, George Conard, Executive Director of the Mifos Initiative, and Adam Monsen, one of our software engineers, had the pleasure of being interviewed by Leo Laporte and Randal Schwartz on FLOSS Weekly. 

FLOSS (Free Libre Open Source Software) Weekly is a nationally syndicated podcast from the TWiT Network - it has hosted conversations with some of the open source industry's greatest minds including John Roberts, the co-founder and CEO of SugarCRM, Larry Augustin, one of the driving forces behind Sourceforge, and Jimmy Wales, the founder of Wikipedia.  

Please download the podcast and listen in as George and Adam provide a candid look into the past, present and future of the Mifos Initiative.  George reflects back on the vision and history of Mifos, the current impact it is having throughout the industry and highlights our strategy and outlook for the future.  Adam gives us a personal look into what it's like coordinating and managing contributions from our global community and encourages everyone to participate and contribute to this open platform for the microfinance industry.

Great thanks goes out to Leo and Randal and the whole cast of FLOSS Weekly for allowing us to provide a glimpse into Mifos, the powerful impact we can have, and how anybody can get involved with our united efforts to bring together microfinance, open source technology, and global collaboration to help break the destructive cycle of poverty.
