"Great strides have been made in the field of social entrepreneurship, but the
ability to measure and communicate the impact of a venture's efforts still
remains a significant challenge for most organizations," says NYU Stern

nonprofit and for-profit fields, along with leading scholars, will convene for
the Sixth Annual Satter Conference of Social Entrepreneurs at NYU Stern on
November 6, 2009. Participants will explore the latest approaches for measuring
an organization`s social impact - key information for influencing today`s social
capital market investors.
