Globalization, demographics, changing consumer preferences, and public
finances are driving the emergence of an „Impact Economy“ for the first
time in human history. Analogous to the New Economy, the Impact Economy
will fundamentally transform business, civil society, and the public
sector. A multi-trillion dollar social capital market; companies who
seek authentic engagement instead of PR-focused corporate
responsibility; and private risk capital funding public goods are around
the corner. Many new ventures and projects are under way. Some will
succeed. Many will fail without reaching scale. Beyond both profit and
philanthropy, what does it mean to be a part of the Impact Economy? A
practitioner analyzes how it will change the way we consume, invest and
work.
