Social entrepreneurship. Definitely one of the latest and greatest buzzwords (buzzphrase? buzzconcept? errrr…) of recent times.
Such was the theme of this year’s Kravis De Roulet Conference, an annual gathering sponsored by our very own Kravis Leadership Institute. Held last Friday in downtown LA, the conference was essentially a couple different moderated discussions about social entrepreneurship, focusing on topics like, “Social Challenges– Business Opportunities” and “Public Ventures– Government Fostered Social Entrepreneurship.”
Henry Kravis, the conference’s keynote speaker (CMC ‘67, Kravis Leadership Institute’s namesake, and KKR founding partner), delivered a lunchtime address on “Investing in Social Enterprises.” His biggest point was that social investing should be done in the same way as for profit investing– do your due diligence.
