Hi all,
A fairly large venture capital organization is holding an investors' summit near where I live in a couple of months. I have asked for (and received) permission to show up and talk about Effective Altruism. Events like these often attract people with a lot more money and influence than I have, and I figured getting such people interested in the topic could potentially do a lot of good.
To be clear, I'm not giving an official "talk"; I've just been invited to show up with a handful of other EAs and wander around talking to people (and possibly handing out literature).
I figure I can't possibly be the first person in the community to try something like this, so I'm looking for advice and/or resources on exposing people to Effective Altruism in the most effective and least obnoxious way possible. Being a complete newbie at this sort of thing, I'm open to any and all advice, up to and including "This will be counterproductive; don't do it."
Thanks very much for any help you can provide.
PS: I'm new here, so I apologize in advance if this is the wrong forum for this sort of thing.
Thanks very much! And the workplace activism handbook looks interesting even though it's not directly related to this particular project, so thanks for that too.
