Leping Foundation: Introducing Venture Philanthropy to China
內容大綱
This case explores the challenges and opportunities of practicing venture philanthropy in an emerging market. Jaff Shen, a serial social entrepreneur and Founder/General Secretary of Leping Social Entrepreneur Foundation ("Leping"), brought the international venture philanthropy network Social Venture Partners ("SVP") to China in 2012 to help build China's overall civil society and proclivity for social entrepreneurship. SVP's Beijing branch, which launched as a non-profit in 2013, made fast progress in attracting partners and investing in multiple mission-driven organizations. SVP Shanghai followed in 2016, registering as a for-profit for greater flexibility of operations, but was making slow progress. Students are asked to explain the reasons for Shanghai's slow growth, and then critically evaluate a strategy suggested to Shen for accelerating the progress. They must take a stand in Shen's internal debate about whether to push a fast top-down strategy or tolerate a slower-paced bottom-up trajectory. Students also have the opportunity to compare four different SPO investment opportunities shortlisted by SVP Shanghai's partners for their initial investment, and to propose an evaluative framework for screening the potential targets and subsequently monitoring the investment outcomes.
