Resources
There are plenty of useful resources on innovation-driven entrepreneurship from thought leaders in the field. These are our picks.

COLLECTIVE IMPACT
The Stanford Centre on Philanthropy and civil Society at Stanford University, Tamarack Institute, and the Collective Impact Forum have produced very useful materials that help explain collective impact. Here are some of our favorite
Stanford Social Innovation Review Paper, 2011. This is likely, the earliest record of the term Collective Impact.
