SOCAP 11 CONFERENCE GUIDE

SPEAKERS SPONSORS TEAM THANK YOU TRANSPARENCY SCHEDULE OVERVIEW

WELCOME TO SOCAP11

Weve got later stage companies in the room, established investment funds who are expanding, but there are more than 80 scholarshipped social entrepreneurs among you. Roughly one in four have been asked to tell their companies stories in our Entrepreneur Track called Where the Passion meets the Pitch. Meet them, listen to their stories. Look for ways you can help them. I especially challenge the longtime practitioners here to talk to someone with a raw startup. They dont know what you know, but they might know something new. They are also inspiring and I guarantee you will feel more hopeful and more energized after you talk to them. The gathering at SOCAP is about meeting the valuable stranger at new intersections. Meet the startups that are in the room. Think about ways to help them out. And then do it. This is about more than just having a dialogue between the established professionals and the startups with big ideas. Im suggesting that if the system is at risk, its time to make a lot of small bets on startups who are building a new system. The answer to a global problem is not a global solution, its polycentric solutions; lots of solutions in lots of places. People with those solutionsthings theyve figured out that work in a particular sector or regionare all around you. Get to know them. This is not just a game for accredited investors, for the rich. Putting your money together with what means something to you is not just an option for those with abundant monetary resources any more. The social capital market is becoming increasingly democratic. Weve gathered the most promising of the crowdfunding, capital platforms for change, the people-powered powerhouses like MicroPlace and Kiva, and promising startups like the Hoop Fund, where for $20 you can put your money where your mouth is. There is a glut of money that wants to have a positive social or environmental impact. There are plenty of untested heroic visionaries. But there is still a scarcity of social entrepreneurs who can build something beyond

themselves. The time has come for us, the leaders in this market, to place some bets on early stage startups so that those entrepreneurs who can launch enterprises that grow beyond themselves can emerge and rise up to create the changes our world needs. And the best among them will create the real investable businesses that are lower risk and higher return, the pipeline that all the fund investors in the room are hungry for. While we take action, we also need to keep what were doing in perspective and remember that were shifting paradigms here, were fundamentally changing the way the world works. We need to keep top of mind that the market at the intersection of money and meaning is more than an asset class. Its also the way that a global movement is taking action for good. The only way it will reach its potential is to keep meaning at the forefront. If the money takes over, we will have failed. The way we can have the highest impactthe most catalytic, game-changing, systemic impact, the way our lives can matter most, and be the most satisfyingis to keep the action unmistakably in the intersection between money and meaning, with both squarely at the table when we do our deals. The market at the intersection of money and meaning is not a force of nature. Its a tool. Our tool. And its powerful. Lets use it. Welcome to SOCAP11. Lets get things done. KEVIN D. JONES
SOCAP CONVENER

The world around us reminds me a lot of the first time we gathered here to convene the market at the intersection of money and meaning, in the fall of 2008. Lehman Brothers had just gone under and our financial system was at risk; debt had exploded and the markets were in free fall. We said then, there is a different market system arising, one that can be part of fixing the problem, not creating it. The outlook then was similar to what we are facing now, with the added risk of having to factor in the prospect of short-sighted and destructive actions by government making things worse or popular uprisings making governments seem weak and irrelevant. As traditional markets tremble due to deep dysfunction, as an old system decays before our eyes, were glad you are coming to join us to be part of creating whats next, here at the market at the intersection of money and meaning. With system risk all around us, its time to focus on supporting the social entrepreneurs who are creating a new, inclusive, and sustainable economy. The emphasis this year is two fold. The first is making sense of the social capital market, showing and sharing the systemic roadmaps that are emerging, and showing the variety of ways we can and are applying those approaches. The second emphasis is on seed funding, more about that later. There is institutional money in the room, family offices, foundations, strong, credible, public sector players here, like Elizabeth Littlefield of OPICa government agency

that actually has a plan and acts on it. There are the families of impact investment funds, and the emerging fund of funds. As Jed Emerson says, a global capital convergence for good is underway. SOCAPs mission is to help create social and economic power for the poor. And we help catalyze a for-profit market to make that happen. Our initial goal in creating SOCAP was to show that the market between giving and investing was real, that it was big and that it was growing. Weve accomplished that goal. This market is validated or is on its way there fast. Its easier to raise money than it was five years ago if you have a plan to use the market to make a faster and bigger game-changing impact. Now its time to take the next step. Lets get things done fast. Lets fund some risky, early stage startups. They will be higher risk, and they may be lower return. And its the thing we should do. Its time to put our money where our mouth is, time to make things happen. The troubles in the old system as it decays means its time to make sense of this market, find our own version of a plan, and take action. What does this action look like, exactly? Well, the really new thing were bringing you this year is an unprecedented gathering of vetted, early stage and beyond, potentially investable social enterprise startups who are using the market to alleviate poverty and create resilient systems. Weve picked some of the best startups whove made it through programs like the Unreasonable Institute, Echoing Green, and Slow Money. And we are giving them a place to tell their story at SOCAP11.

What brings these people together? THE DESIRE TO GROW

1 ASHWINI NARAYANAN / General Manager Every time I encounter someone who is a MicroPlace investor, I meet what is the best in them: their humanity, generosity, and compassion.

A MOVEMENT THAT LETS EVERYONE INVEST FOR GOOD.


At MicroPlace, we dont accept a world where half the population is mired in poverty, where access to financial support and community services is just a wish. And were teaming up with smart investors to do something about it. Thats why were at SOCAPwe believe that change begins with the individual, and when individuals join together to form a movement, that change becomes truly transformational. Were building a community of impact investors who want their money to do good not just for them, but for those in need as well. People who want to do more than just invest, who want to be invested. In change. In opportunity. In making a difference. We cant wait to welcome you to this growing community. 7

2 DANA SCHMIDT / Compliance Impact investing allows me to apply my education and skills in traditional finance to causes that matter to meSitting in a yurt in Kyrgyzstan listening to borrowers explain how microfinance helped them rebuild their lives after the fall of the Soviet Union- thats why I come to work every day!. 3 GILES CASSELS / Marketing MicroPlace gives me the opportunity to directly address the economic and social inequality I first observed as a child, picking oranges alongside migrant workers in my familys Florida citrus groves. 4 MEGAN FIELDING / Business Development I do what I do because somewhere along the line, I realized it was what I was meant to do: connect humanity and create means for positive change. 5 SUGANDHA PARTHASARATHY / Product Development When I made my first investment, and then when I joined MicroPlace, I realized my aspiration to make a direct impact in alleviating poverty through my job. 6 FLAVIA ROMERO / Social Media MicroPlace was the first organization I encountered bold enough to believe individuals could change the world by fusing their passionate will to end poverty with the efficiency found in investments.

What happens when money meets meaning? This same question, which has driven increasingly large and diverse groups of people to SOCAP conferences for the past three years has also animated conversations in church basements and Sunday school classes for generations. To help connect these two conversations Criterion Ventures is partnering with SOCAP11 to create a curated SOCAP process for individuals coming from a church background. Criterion has ten years of experience working with church and the social capital marketplace, and has begun to form a broader community around its focused initiative, Church as an Economic Being. People from Criterion are acting as docents for a group of fellow travelers, bringing knowledge of the event and relationships with its leaders to provide an experience that facilitates community, perspective and time for reflection. If you are intrigued, want to join, or would like more information you can email martinez@criterionventures. com or stop at the Information desk at the front of either Herbst or Festival Pavilions and ask how to connect with the Criterion Group.

CONNECT WITH SOCAP11 SOCIAL MEDIA


Social media can be used as an online extension of the conversation, as well as a reporting mechanism for the thousands who will be following SOCAP11 online. Help us share learnings, thoughts, ideas, and questions from SOCAP11 by utilizing social media. Here are a few ways:

CONFERENCE CURRENTS: CURRENCIES THAT MAKE THE VALUE AT SOCAP11 VISIBLE

Why Conference Currents? While a conference acts as a marketplace of ideas, deep value resides in the connections, idea development, insights, innovation, and projects you encounter. This value often disappears after we leave the event because we dont make it more tangible than a stack of business cards that quickly lose their context. Conference Currents provides tracking and coherence for these intangible value streams, enabling you to maximize the real wealth of the conference experience, even after you go back home.

OPEN SPACE
Every year SOCAPs third day has been structured as an unconference, using a process called Open Space. Participants have loved it, many leave saying that these sessions were the place where they learned the most. In Open Space, participants propose topics for sessions. People interested in those topics attend those sessions. The process is only marginally more complicated than that, and it leads to great discussions, chance meetings that might not have occurred and more. This year were mixing the Open Space into the conference itself. At the opening plenary, well explain how the Open Space will work. Then twice a day well self-organize, giving us time to dive more deeply, together, into issues that matter to us. Then well head back to the regular sessions and learn more. We invite you and all our attendees to host your own session to address issues that arise on the spot, continue conversations that are left unfinished, frame issues in a

ART AND EXPRESSION SPACE


Enhancing the overall SOCAP11 experienceby both curating art exhibits and providing ways for attendees themselves to draw, paint, sculpt, or create a physical modelwe are leveraging art and kinesthetic modeling to layer learning and sharing, and create conditions for epiphanies. By providing full-spectrum learning experiences through the visual arts and the Show Me Stations, can we increase the likelihood that SOCAP11 participants will learn deeply and collaborate on emerging thought? Lets find out together.

I enjoy the audacity of knowing that the act of mapping it is futile but is done anyway. Everyone can relate to being a part of a larger system out of their control, says the artist. This imagery is also juxtaposed against explosions, weather patterns, and abstract expressionist references. The painting is also quite All of the above exhibited pieces are available for purchase directly from the artists. The Art and Expression Space at SOCAP11 was curated by Maura Dilley.

If you have a topic that you want to propose, our facilitatorJerry Michalskiwill set the stage for introducing ideas during our marketplace session on Wednesday afternoon. Friday afternoon, even during tear-down of the conference, we are hoping that people will hang around and continue to participate in self-organized conversations. This after party will be hosted by the Pop-up Hub staff. SF Off the Grid and nearly 30 of their popular food trucks will be at Ft. Mason for people to purchase food and drink, and perhaps even provide a little music for listening and dancing enjoyment. About our facilitator Jerry Michalski is the founder of REX, the Relationship Economy eXpedition, a private, collaborative inquiry into the next economy. More broadly, he is a pattern finder, lateral thinker, Gladwellian connector, facilitator and explorer of the interactions between technology, society and business.

Show Me Stations are portalsdesigned by Maura Dilley through which people can pull ideas into the physical world. They provide a relief point for fatigued verbal descriptions that need density and shape to be understood, shared, and enhanced. Attendees are encouraged to use these kiosks (which deliver creative materials such as clay, paper, glue, markers, pipe cleaners, and gizmos) to prototype, model, and create illustrative examples of their ideas.

BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER TO MAKE CHANGE

TRACKS AT SOCAP11

DESIGN FOR SOCIAL INNOVATION


The most effective social innovations are the result of careful design within a cultural context. Thats a skill that can be learned. Explore tools and stories related to system, service, product and business design. Follow the sequence of a design process through the phases of research, synthesis, concept development, prototyping, iteration and funding; Dive into tools and stories related to system, service, product and business design; and participate in case study presentations, discussions and hands-on activities to help you apply design methodology to your projects.

Our goal for SOCAP has always been to build and inspire a community to come together, share their stories and expertise, and help create the partnerships, investments, and donations that get important things done. This year, we are asking big questions and hearing bold answers. What are new technologies helping to change the way we create impact? How are we strategically looking at systems to design for more effective initiatives? How are our on-line lives changing our off-line actions? What is the interplay of public and private sectors in the wake of turbulent times in governments around the world? Where are local solutions

creating templates for global problems? How have we moved past doing no harm into infusing good into supply chains? How is media making a difference in spreading the message of social action? Above all else, how are weas a communitymaking sure that social entrepreneurs are getting in front of the right partners to realize the true potential of their enterprises? We have the questions. We believe we all have the answers. Thank you for joining us on this journey.

Curated by Sarah Brooks, Hot Studio Assisted by Christina Tran, AC4D My name is Sarah Brooks, and Im the Director of Social Innovation at Hot Studio and founder of Networked Culture, a design strategy consultancy. At Hot Studio, we are a team of designers and engineers who work with social entrepreneurs, business leaders, innovative organizations and emerging companies to help amplify their impact. Since 2000 my work has focused on designing products and services that support emergent community. This has included peer-to-peer open collaboration, the creation of value networks, and the use of rich media to spark debate and share ideas. Im excited to be curating the Design for Social Innovation track at SOCAP 11. I hope to see you there.

LEVERAGING THE NEW MEDIA CURRENCY


Modern media is no longer simply the newest, shiniest vehicle to disseminate information: its become the way we measure and express who we are and the meaning of our lives. Technological advances continue to connect us at a scale previously unfathomed, transforming mass communication into mass participation. Join us as we explore new models in the wake of this shift and address the shrinking gap between social and financial capital. Curated by Jeff Leifer, Circadian Media Lab Transformative change begins with a shift towards harmonizing our business and life goals. At Circadian Media Lab, we are committed to bringing about this meaningful change in culture through authentic engagement. From engineering digital media to sharing transformational stories, CML is stretching towards this horizon. I was proud to be among the earliest voices advocating socially responsible finance and still consider that a driving force in my life. Ive had the privilege of working at the intersection of media, finance and technology for more than three decades and Im still learning how to frame the big questions facing social capital today.

TECHNOLOGY: INCLUSIVE AND INVESTIBLE


Many challenges face the world, and some situations are getting worse so rapidly that viable solutions seem daunting. In this track we explore (1) how technology can be used to bring about systemic change, quickly, as well as (2) tools to help investors make sense of this evolving landscape. Curated by Jessica Margolin Assisted by Avary Kent, HIP Investor Im Jessica Margolin. For over two decades, Ive been intrigued by the way different sectors of our economy fit together. How is the home related to the community and the workplace? How do for-profits and non-profits complement each other? If someone has a bad day at work, does that affect the efficacy of the school system? If we created a person-centric model of the economy (like a carbon cycle or a water cycle) how might that inform the way we think and feel about our lives?

All these different sets of information interact. As a social entrepreneur, Ive seen the potential of building products around access to information and technology. As an impact investment analyst, I enjoy the scale.

Our shared interest in a sustainable, equitable economic future is at stake. How can we help you, and you help us, to make capital social by nature? Curated by Ben Thornley, InSight Assisted by Meredith Willa, Pacific Community Ventures Im Ben Thornley, Director of InSight, the thought leadership practice at Pacific Community Ventures a growth equity manager deploying $60 million to high-potential companies in underserved communities in the US. My work includes building a global network of researchers, investors and public officials focused on the critical role of government in growing impact investing, supported by The Rockefeller Foundation, and consulting to the largest pension fund in the US, CalPERS, on the social impacts of the over $17 billion it invests in California. I am excited to use this track as an opportunity to link the many worlds that comprise social capital and impact investing markets in the US and to highlight the collaborative ideas and experiences from which we all can benefit.

PEOPLE-POWERED CAPITAL
Sponsored by MicroPlace Within this track, we investigate how on-line and off-line democratizing trends are disrupting the capital markets. With platforms like IndieGoGo, MicroPlace, and Kiva, an individual can invest as little as $20 to make a change in the world. Together, all of us can make a bigger difference than just the rich and philanthropic few. Join us to explore ways entrepreneurs are giving us tools that use our individual and collective power to make an impact through crowdfunding and collaborative, shareable commerce. Curated by Rebecca Petzel, Groupaya Assisted by Avary Kent, HIP Investor Im Rebecca Petzel and I work with Groupaya: a new kind of consultancy where we empower groups of people to realize their collective intelligence and maximize collective impact. Since 2008 Ive been studying how online, collaborative communities are out-performing and supplanting our old institutional paradigms in efforts to save the world. Ive helped set up and manage new crowdsourcing communities, and worked with large corporations to help them move past old institutional models towards open, collaborative working styles. My work is all about creating people-powered mindsets, and no where is this more needed than in the capital markets. Im excited to explore the future of People-Powered Capital and how we can create a movement to take impact investing to the next level, together.

POLYCENTRIC SOLUTIONS: LOCAL IN THE WORLD


The way to solve a global problem is not with a centralized, global solution; its with polycentric, local solutions everywhere they are needed; urban and rural, unique but replicable. We will be exploring the multiple centers of action that must be aligned for local communities to (re)generate themselves as thrivable, livable places. We will look at systems of food, housing, and capital flows, as well as ways in which we build resilience in ourselves and our communities. We will also look at the ways in which by local action can create sustainable communities built on mutually accountable, interactive systems. We will also use living case studies, and the Eco-cities framework, to ground each discussion with interactive mini solution sessions. Lets bridge the divide between the developing and developed world, and learn from one another. Curated by Fiona Hovenden Im Fiona Hovenden, curator of the track Polycentric Solutions: Local in the World. Im an ethnographer by trade and inclination. I have spent the last twenty years researching and documenting how individuals, groups, and organizations change to navigate crisis and embrace possibility. With Erika Gregory I cofounded the social innovation consultancy Collective Invention, Inc. We use holistic diagnostics, theater, futures thinking, and research-based persona and scenario development to create immersive experiences that enable our clients to explore future options, and develop a forward-acting resilience.

MONEY, MEANING, & IMPACT


Discover social entrepreneurs who can and are changing the world, and those who support them investors, foundations, and government particularly here in the United States. Focus on connecting the best business and project ideas to innovative capital solutions, providing a mix of risk, return and impact opportunities. Imagine new rules of the game that solidify the most effective models of social change through policy reform. Celebrate a new vision for mainstream financial markets and ask the largest, most influential private and public institutions to take note.

GREEN 2.0: SUSTAINING PEOPLE & PLANET


Green 2.0 fully integrates people and planet into the whole solution. Green 2.0 business products and services are good throughout their entire life cycle, and good for employeesfor the people who mine the raw materials that wind up in the products, and for all those local ecosystems and community stakeholders along the way. Green 2.0 conservation solutions create ways for ecosystems and humans to thrive together, not just in our separate quarters. Planet-focused investors are learning that they need poor people in the developing world as allies. And poverty-focused investors find new, greenfocused investors who want to co-invest with them. Learn where opportunity is emerging, where there are challenges, and where Green 2.0 is moving to scale and becoming mainstream. Curated by Liz Krueger My name is Liz Krueger, and Im the curator of the Green 2.0 track. Im a midcareer professional and student of sustainability working on my own career transition to Green 2.0. I love seeing the progress in solutions, products and services that are not just less bad than alternatives, but come together as sustainable and restorative of people and planet.

stage companies in a range of industries. I have played key roles in the early stages of two private equity firms. And I am a board member of SJF Institute and Investors Circle.

ENTREPRENEURS: WHERE THE PASSION MEETS THE PITCH


Experience social entrepreneurs telling their stories of their world-changing startups. This track will feature four pitch sessions, each consisting of four entrepreneurs. Outstanding entrepreneurs were vetted by our partner social enterprise accelerator programs, and we have chosen the best of the best. These individuals will be presenting to a panel of esteemed practitioners in impact investing who are challenged not to find holes in the presentations, but to compete to offer real, tangible support to help the entrepreneurs reach their goals. Curated by Jennifer Nice I have worked to advance the socially responsible investment category for the past 11 years. I currently work on strategic initiatives with Good Capital, Hub Bay Area and ImpactAssets. Previously, I worked for The Womens Equity Mutual Fund and have also been active in the creation of Donor Advised Fund Programs with foundations and individuals that highlight impact investing. Ably assisting Jenn with the Entrepreneur Pitch Sessions were Gabby Culver, Avary Kent and Janet Wang of the SOCAP team. Entrepreneur Pitch Sessions moderated by Suzanne Beigel of Investors Circle Im the former CEO and now on the advisory board of Investors Circle, now a part of SJF Institute, an early stage impact-investing network based in the US and with strong ties to European networks. I serve on the GIIRS Advisory Board and boards of for-profit companies I invest in. Im an active angel investor and philanthropist. I live in London but spend much time in the US. I am passionate about bringing women into impact investing, and growing the base of women entrepreneurs. In an earlier life I built an e-learning business, have been involved in the online world since the early 1980s, and have started and run several green businesses.

With this years conference being larger than ever, we are inviting you as a participant to join the track you are most interested in for this 45-minute session that will introduce the various ways attendees have of connecting at SOCAP11. This session will also include a brief overview of the conference to help you navigate a very rich three days. Simply go to the room where the breakout session you are planning to attend is being held and there will be an intro conversation running right up to the beginning of the first session.

KEEPING THE MEANING IN THE MARKET


Kevin Jones, Rosa Lee Harden, SOCAP (co-moderators) Kevin Starr, Mulago Foundation Steve Wright, Grameen Foundation Saba Gul, Bags for Bliss Mathieu Senard, Alter Eco

A Pakistani entrepreneur whose enterprise helps girls earn the money to stay in school, a donor whose impact metrics are so beautiful hes asked to speak at design conferences, a leader of a fair trade company that does reforestation and seed banks for biomedicinals in the developing world, and a thought leader at the intersection of money and meaning, in conversation with SOCAP convener Kevin Jones and SOCAP producer and Episcopal priest Rosa Lee Harden. Where do you find the persistent motivation when progress is hard and everything feels like youre going up hill? And when momentum comes knocking, how do you keep the meaning and the mission on track?

Theres a new wave of social entrepreneurs coming those who approach the creation of their company from a design perspective, rather than a business, policy, or technology perspective. This session brings together these entrepreneurs in order to explore the new wave of socially-minded, design-driven companies, products, and services.

This session will explore the business case for impact metrics. The panel will feature business, philanthropic, and investment leaders exploring the ways in which tracking impact metrics has had a tangible effectfrom bottom line to customer relationships, from attracting investors to helping inform public policy. As new systems of measurement and standards emerge, what are the tensions from within a company or a fund about how much time and effort to put into metrics? Who are the ultimate consumers of metrics and what kind of cost/benefit analysis needs to be done about meeting their needs? The goal of the session is to explore what actually works in terms of making metrics actionable and valuable.

With increasing economic and environmental insecurity, food access is becoming a critical issue. Food insecurity makes communities more vulnerable to other effects, and traditionally disenfranchised communities are at risk. How do we think about urban agriculture and sustainable farming to ensure that good, fresh food is within the reach of all? A re-imagining of the food-shedand local resourcescreates value, builds skills and engagement, and is ultimately a foundation for resilience.

Five impact funds ranging from microfinance, to real estate to cleantech will outline their management team, track record, and selection strategy. This session is a collaboration of SOCAP and Watershed Capital to showcase innovative fund managers in the sector, some of which have received support and backing from members of the Toniic investor network.

This session brings together an important mix of interests (a policy maker, social entrepreneur, philanthropist, investor, and platform provider) (since there are 6 panelists do we want 6 descriptors vs. 5?) and focuses on the governments deep and abiding interest in investment markets with explicit social and/or environmental benefits. With shrinking public budgets, and a laser-like focus on job creation, the race to develop innovative policy mechanisms driving greater pools of private capital toward increased public good is as urgent as its ever been.

How can we accelerate the shift to an integrated future one that takes a unified approach to making money and making a difference? Co-authors of the first seminal book on impact investing explore key levers of deeper change and innovation with a leading future strategist, while tapping into the collective insights of session attendees.

In contrast to classic capitalism, with its singular focus upon the extraction of resources to create value, the principles of Slow Money argue for a regenerative system of capital flow. Value taken out is balanced by value put back in. Using the ideas of farming and Slow Food as metaphor and inspiration, this movement argues for percentages of re-investment into the local community What would the world be like if we invested 50% of our assets within 50 miles of where we live? In order to make local communities viable and self-sustaining what kinds of entrepreneurship and business models are needed?

Come learn as leaders in the space take a look at how social entrepreneurship and impact investing have evolved so far in East Asia, the successes and failures, where it is headed, and how we should influence future direction.

Moving to truly sustainable solutions and managing their path to success requires integrated, multi-faceted problem-solving approaches and applied systems thinking. How do you look at the whole picture and break down the problems into manageable pieces? How do you ensure that different types of investment and capital serve their intended roles? How does one measure the success of multi-stakeholder collaboration?

Bob Pattillo has been early and right more often than anyone else in impact investing. A key investor in the first microfinance bond deal, he launched the first fund for mobile technology and the first fund for education in the developing world. The creator of a seed stage funding model that lets entrepreneurs perform due diligence on their peers, Pattillos ideas shock people, until they discover he was right after all. He explains his next big idea in and armchair conversation with Kevin Jones.

For Malm, and the Region, this was a tragedy as the city not only lost a large number of jobs, but also its identity and its population dwindled.
