More gen crossing

At the Global Philanthropy Forum the featured group was The Elders.

At the Council on Foundations the biggest splash came from the Next Gen organizers (EPIP, Resource Generation, Changemakers, 21/64, etc). Should we assume from this n of 2 that:

•    Foundations are run by old folks so younger people are the next new thing?
•    Social enterprise and entrepreneurship is the purview of the young, and so older mentors are the invited voices?
