I once heard a talk about raising goeenrmvnt grants for social ventures. The speaker was talking about how difficult it is to raise funds for a venture falls between non-profit and for-profit, as his venture could produce modest returns, but primarily was for social purposes. Because he was planning to have some return on investment, he wasn't able to get certain goeenrmvnt grants. I would be interested to hear about options for raising capital for ventures that are not completely non-profit, but don't expect IRRs of 30-50%. Ventures that return 0-10% or even some loss, but serve a social cause seem like a great investment for a goeenrmvnt that is already writing off losses. Thank you.

Great interview...
Thank you...
