Hybrid Value Chain = microfinance

I just gotta share this excitement I have...

I just listened to a 30-minute audio interview (register for free download) with Bill Drayton, the CEO-founder of Ashoka.org, the global association of the world’s leading social entrepreneurs, which was very inspiring because he described exactly what we are setting out to do here in Eugene, create "teams of teams" or "networks of networks."  Bill claims, and I believe, that the social entrepreneurs are the cutting edge of exponential social change in the world, change for the common good, change for PEACE!

"One of the earliest examples of a Hybrid Value Chain is microfinance, the providing of affordable financial services to low-income clients, most of whom had little or no previous access to banking and other related services."  For more, see this link:
