About Markets for Good

Markets for Good is an effort by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the progressive financial firm Liquidnet to improve the system for generating, sharing, and acting upon data and information in the social sector. Our vision is of a social sector powered by information, where interventions are more effective and innovative, where capital flows efficiently to the organizations that are having the greatest impact, and where there is a dynamic culture of continuous learning and development.

For nearly two years, Markets For Good has been a forum for discussion for all those in the social sector looking to create tangible impact. We look to feature profiles, interviews, best practices, innovative ideas, news from other websites, real life examples and the opinions of our readers in our joint effort to help the sector make better decisions.

Given how important your views are to the development of information and social progress, please comment on our articles and enjoy the opportunity to ask our contributors questions.

You may also wish to join the debate on Twitter or within our LinkedIn Group.
