 Welcome everyone. It's Wednesday, it's SoCAP and the sun is shining. How's everyone feeling? Some years I get stuck in the green room and I never get out to see all of you beautiful people doing what you're doing and today I had so much time to just walk around campus and it's the highlight of my year. So thank you for being you, having all the wonderful conversations that you're having. This afternoon plenary is titled New Approaches to Expand the Impact Economy and the reason I've titled it that is because the fun part of my job is that I get to sit here in the middle of this kind of all year and see the SoCAP open submissions come in and see all of our entrepreneur scholarships come in, applications come in and I get this amazing view of the ways that this economy is growing and all of the different efforts that are coming from so many sectors that are making this economy grow. So you're going to get a taste of a bunch of different areas within this plenary and I think it might be helpful to hear people often ask on prep calls or other things who is at SoCAP and so my standard answer that my staff has heard me say a million times is about a third are social enterprise. They're the entrepreneurs that are here as scholarships, they're huge social entrepreneurs that are in the Million Lives Club, they're for-profit, they're non-profit, they're from 45 different countries in our entrepreneur cohort, they're people who work for social enterprises so that's a full third of the attendance here which I think brings a lot of the energy. A third about is sources of capital, so whether those are high net worth individuals to institutional investors, financial advisors, wealth managers, investment staff at foundations and the last third that has been so fun to see grow over the last few years is this really mixed bag of government and corporations and the international development sector and global NGOs and service providers in this space like lawyers and marketing firms that are springing up to respond to all of you in this space and artists and activists and policy makers and it's been amazing to see all of these people come in and the valuable stranger piece of our mission really come to life so I hope you experience that throughout this plenary and to kick us off I want to welcome Ben Thornley from Tideline to moderate a session on a time for action and accountability in impact because measuring this impact figuring out who's in how do we all speak the same language is one of the most important pieces of growing this economy so please welcome our biggest panel to the stage.
