An interesting social innovation conference. I love to see a speaker from IDEO on the lineup. Philanthropy could use a lot more input from groups like IDEO.

Sean, a few years back RWJF, on behalf of a public health coalition and several funders, linked up with IDEO on a creative look at changing the way foundations market products to the public to change health knowledge, attitudes and behavior (think smoking). It was a fascinating exercise although I’m not sure that larger public health coalition ‘got’ it, but I agree that philanthropy could use such input from IDEO and similar groups.
