Global Philanthropy Forum

Leveraging markets and private sector ingenuity will be a key component of poverty alleviation strategies going forward. Increasingly, private sector companies have expanded their definition of “value” beyond the creation of shareholder wealth to include the advancement of the interests of stakeholders including suppliers, consumers, employees and society at large.  Panelists will discuss this normative shift, and the practical implications of “inclusive business” pursuing “shared value” strategies that create jobs and contribute to the fabric of the community. They will also speak about efforts to construct an ecosystem for impact investing, the new focus on creating jobs and building a resilient middle class.
