The citizen sector, composed of millions of groups worldwide that are attempting to address critical social needs, has long been regarded as understaffed and inefficient. But it has grown and matured over the past three decades, say the authors, both of Ashoka: Innovators for the Public. Citizen sector organizations (CSOs) are attracting talented and creative leaders, and their work is changing the game in critical industries such as energy and health care. For-profit companies now have an opportunity to collaborate with CSOs to create new markets for reaching the four billion people who are not yet part of the world's formal economy. The power of such collaborations lies in the complementary strengths of the partners: Business offers scale, expertise in manufacturing and operations, and financing. Social entrepreneurs offer lower costs, strong social networks, and deep insights into potential customers and communities. The authors call this framework the hybrid value chain. In one example, Colceramica, a Colombian manufacturer of kitchen and bathroom tile, collaborated with the human-rights organization Kairos, which recruited and managed a sales force of previously unemployed women, to reach a low-income market. Within three years sales had grown to nearly $12 million; the living conditions of more than 28,000 families had been improved; and 179 saleswomen were each earning $230 a month.
