How is FLOW different from other organizations promoting social entrepreneurism?
FLOW supports all entrepreneurial efforts that result in human betterment, be they explicitly “social entrepreneurship” or otherwise. We benefit from automobiles and refrigerators, birth control and year-round fresh produce, computers and cell phones through the efforts of many thousands of entrepreneurs and their resulting businesses. While FLOW recognizes that businesses have not always pursued human well-being as consistently in the past as they ought to have done so, on balance FLOW recognizes that the process of creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship, whether implemented by large for-profit corporations, isolated individuals, family businesses, or non-profit organizations have collectively provided extraordinary gifts to humanity. In addition to our much broader vision of “social entrepreneurship,” FLOW has a more comprehensive, far-reaching vision than is characteristic of more specialized social entrepreneurship organizations. We wish to weave together the work of existing
