Bill Gates recently stated: "We need a creative capitalism where business and non-governmental organisations work together to create a market system that eases the world's inequities."

How can this be achieved? We bring together a panel of the UKs leading proponents of social enterprise to discuss the issue.

Speakers:
Jonathan Bland: Chief Executive of the Social Enterprise Coalition
Paul Cheng: Investment manager for Venturesome, an investment bank for social welfare organisations
Sam Conniff: Social Enterprise Ambassador and founder of Livity
Claire Adams Williams: Founder of Hope Runs, an organisation working in AIDS orphanages in East Africa

Chair:
Jamie Hartzell: Founder of the Ethical Property Company
