Can Digital Innovations Unlock Partnerships to Scale Impact?
Thursday, April 14, 2016
Session Description
Digital tools offer the promise of efficiently reaching the underserved—especially as more communities become accessible through mobile phones and the Internet. But when is technology more of a distraction than an asset for a social entrepreneur? When can digitizing finance or operations excite or require the engagement of an institutional partner? This panel will explore practical solutions that are being implemented at scale through multi-sector partnerships aimed at addressing stakeholders’ social, economic, and environmental needs.
