We had a great time attending the #festivalforthefuture summit recently, Aotearoa's largest social innovation event.

How do we re-define success for the new economy?
CEO of @akinafoundation Louise Aitkin says "It's no longer ok for big businesses to think they don't need to care about the issues we face".
