We need to talk

The world of change requires cross pollination between those who provide funding and those who use it for improving the world. Those who drive change need ecosystems that nurture and sustain them.
The conference will:

  • Inform and inspire those interested in financing change through impact or social investing
  • Provide information on how to create new kinds of change organizations from nonprofits to social businesses to hybrid ventures
  • Create new tools, formats, and structures for social action
  • Build the field for social innovation and sustainable communities

We need to learn

  • The trend and results of impact investing
  • New organizational models for change organizations
  • The definition and measurement of social value
  • The changing relationship between philanthropist, investors, and leaders of change

We need to ask

  • What is working to increase the flow of capital into the hands of those who use it for good?
  • How is impact investing changing the relationship between nonprofit and for profit organizations and those who invest in them?
  • How are social profit and financial gain creating a whole new approach for solving our most pressing problems?
  • How will these trends foster a new breed of change organization that creates a better world?
  • What about those who are not directly involved in driving change? What is the new role of the community?
