It might be the bias inherent in my own network of friends, particularly because of the fact that many of us went through the Leadership Vancouver program here, which is focused very heavily on community development, but it certainly feels to me like many of the entrepreneurs I know are also more interested in building companies while having a positive impact on the community around them. Some of the examples of this are particularly obvious in the bioproducts arena where many of the technologies are truly green.
Another great example is the work being done by the people over at BC Technology Social Venture Partners in association with many of the local social entrepreneurs.
