<P>A recipient of the Muhammad Ali Humanitarian of the Year Award, named one of Wired’s“Agents of Change” and listed as one of the most influential creative people by The Creativity50’s, Mick Ebeling has sparked a movement of pragmatic, inspirational innovation. As a career producer and filmmaker, and now founder and CEO of Not Impossible, Ebeling harvests the power of technology and story to change the world. He founded Not Impossible on the premise that nothing is impossible. His mantra of "commit, then figure it out" allows him to convene a disparate team of hackers, doers, makers and thinkers to create devices that better the world by bringing accessibility for all. Ebeling not only pushes the bar on innovation, he also shares the emotionally resonating story of doing so. These narratives of overcoming seemingly impossible odds have inspired people across the world to do the same.</P>
