In my blog, I've got a picture of something I sketched out yesterday of how to monetize social and other assets without having to charge the financially poorest members of the constituency of a non-profit.

This has happened twice.
I'm feeling the need for a semantic discussion on what exactly is activism vs. other types of change methods.
Let me know if you're interested in a preprint I did for the Institute for the Future's Ten Year Forecast on the financial space over the next ten years.
I talk about alternative capital, intangible assets, and corporate social responsibility movements, etc.
I'm listed as being associated with my start-up, Civv.us, which is very early stage community enterprise (probably for-profit, because I want to attend specifically to alternative capital valuation).
Other than the capital component, I have expertise particularly in the education, k-12, community spaces in the US.
