Enabling Social Entrepreneurship
summary
Claims that digital image tagging trains algorithms for self-driving cars, and that impact sourcing moved 7,000 workers and 30,000 family members from about $2/day to $8/day in East Africa underpin practical examples. A job-training program spreads to Sama School in 68 countries and a US pilot targets gig and online work. Financing experiments include a German fund that raised millions and outcome-based models — social impact bonds used 14 times in the US — where investors are repaid only if predefined poverty‑reduction targets hit.
