  Social Versus Entrepreneur

  David, terrific post. I've been running into this a lot too. I think more than green/cause washing, some of the people who describe their companies as social enterprises truly believe it. Their understanding is if they donate x amount to a cause then they're a social enterprise. Much confusion and fuzzy boundaries in the social business vernacular.

  President Obama to Speak at Social Business Themed Clinton Global Initiative

  Nathaniel,

  
  

  You bring up an important point here--the benefit in scale and efficiency that collaborating sectors bring. There's a nice 'food chain' of social entrepreneurship developing, in that one organization can leverage another group's existing network to distribute, educate, ect.

  
  

  I just did some research on the Children's Safe Drinking Water initiative, which is a program of P&G and PUR. They are doing an excellent job of tapping into existing distribution networks and trust relationships to distribute their technology to purify drinking water and reduce disease.

  
  

  I enjoy all of your posts--do you tweet?
