    Innovation with a Social Purpose

     

    AVITA provides a comprehensive portfolio and assessments tools designed to provide social entrepreneurs, innovators, and enterprises value driven services that foster the creation and dissemination of innovative results for the purpose of creating social, environmental and economic impact in the communities we serve.

     

    According to Wikipedia, a social entrepreneur is someone who recognizes a social problem and uses entrepreneurial principles to organize, create, and manage a venture to make social change.

     

    Social entrepreneurs are individuals who pursue opportunities to create pattern-breaking change in inequitable systems, whether through social enterprises or other means. The underlying motivation is a growing awareness that the scale of the problems we are facing today cannot be adequately solved by the traditional non-profit and philanthropic approach.

     

    AVITA provides a comprehensive portfolio and assessments tools designed to provide social entrepreneurs, innovators, and enterprises value driven services that foster the creation and dissemination of innovative results for the purpose of creating social, environmental and economic impact in the communities we serve.

     

    Rather than maximizing shareholder value, the main aim of social enterprises is to generate profit to further social and or environmental goals through products and services provided. Social enterprises are generally operated by visionary entrepreneurs who recognize potential where others may not see it and who apply discipline, pragmatism, courage and creativity to pursue their solution in spite of all obstacles, toward a world that is more secure and inclusive for all.

     

    AVITA provides solutions to socially driven inventors and organizations that design and foster innovative products and methods with accountability to social and environmental concerns.
