Catalyzing Collaboration for Large Scale Change
The complexity and scale of today’s ‘wicked problems’ demand we raise our game. Social entrepreneurs with innovative solutions to critical issues of climate change, water scarcity, poverty, education and public health, cannot achieve impact at scale without forging cross-sector partnerships and alliances. With shifts in policy and funding environments and a critical mass of social entrepreneurs working globally, the imperative to collaborate is now.
This year’s Forum engaged the world’s most influential social entrepreneurs, social investors, and thought leaders from all sectors in critical discussions, debates and work-sessions designed to create partnerships, networks, knowledge and collaborative pathways between the social, policy, academic and private sectors.
