    The Coming Transformation of Social Enterprise

    by Roger Thompson

    A new generation of business leaders and philanthropists is experimenting with hybrid forms of social enterprises while demanding more transparency and accountability from the organizations they are funding. Harvard Business School professor Kash Rangan discusses what he sees as a sector on the brink of transformation. From the HBS Alumni Bulletin. Key concepts include: Social enterprise as an entity is primarily in the business of creating social value, regardless of whether it's for-profit or nonprofit. Venture philanthropy has to come of age and reorient itself by defining what measures of social return it is looking for. Nonprofits creating for-profit enterprises could pose an unnecessary distraction. There may be some consolidation of nonprofits at the top, but the sector will be more vibrant with many new players and actors helping to facilitate the transformation.
