More entrepreneurs are starting businesses with a social purpose--like addressing poverty or mitigating climate change. And a growing number of investors are supporting this shift in thinking--looking not just at returns but at impact, putting their money on companies that align with their values. In this episode, Lauren talks with Rosa Lee Harden, the co-founder of SOCAP --The Social Capital Markets Network conference--and curator, Lindsay Smalling.
