Mighty Networks on why smart software matters in creating sustainable online social groups

Gina Bianchini is an expert in community building. Many know her as the co-founder and former CEO of Ning, an online platform for people and organizations to create custom social networks. Her latest venture is with a social software startup called Mighty Networks, which reinvents groups online by helping companies and organizations power discussions among professionals. Gina fundamentally believes in the power of new connections and that the answer to today’s flood of social networks is a morphing and progression of these networks. Mighty Networks addresses the need to connect relevant members, break the ice, and drive people to meet up and to learn from each other.
