What is Social Entrepreneurship?

Statement of Faith
You can find other "Market with Meaning" but you definitely want to see "Profit with Purpose".
I personally "Believe in Kingdom Transformation" because I know there is only ONE "Life for Significant".

New IRIS 2.2 Release
The Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN) recently released an upgraded version of the Impact Reporting and Investment Standards (IRIS), which incorporates minor enhancements to existing social and environmental metrics, modifications to glossary definitions, as well as several new indicators.

What does this mean for PULSE users?  Well, the taxonomy is evolving and PULSE team is committed to keeping PULSE aligned with the most up-to-date version.  New PULSE users can download the latest version from the Appexchange and be IRIS 2.2 compliant immediately. Existing users can upgrade using documentation provided on the PULSE wiki or contact us to find out more about PULSE support.  All PULSE users will now have the ability to submit a wider range of data to the IRIS Aggregator.

PULSE in Action

Read about how the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) uses PULSE for detailed metrics tracking and benchmarking, making them a pioneer in the Impact Investing space.

Industry Info
In late 2010, J.P. Morgan, the GIIN, and The Rockefeller Foundation collaborated on a report, Impact Investments: An Emerging Asset Class, which defined the asset class for the impact investing space.  More recently, in late 2011, J.P. Morgan and the GIIN partnered to report on over 2,200 private transactions totaling over $5B of investments.  Investors asked to state their opinion on the current state of the impact investment market answered:
        75% - In its infancy and growing
        19% - About to take off
        6% - A lot of talk, not much action
        0% - In it's prime
        0% - A potential bubble
        0% - Slowing down
