Editor's Notes
- Serving significant portion of society: Worldwide third sector comprised of and estimated 10+ million organizations employing a workforce of 47.6M contributing 5.9% of total GDP. A large portion are the digitally and socially excluded. They understand the digitally and socially excluded. Economic crisis, changes in technology and lack of in-house technology management elevate need for affordable technology solutions with appropriate context Several factors elevate their need for help with technology: economic crisis, fast paced and confusing changes in technology (the Cloud, mobile, so many options), and it really takes solutions. How do you figure out what really works when you are an expert in mental health issues or elder care and you have no in-house IT expert on staff? Gap exists between nonprofit needs and technology product donor capabilities Private technology companies, it turns out, are willing to donate. They know this isn’t a market for them due to its inability to pay and its costs to serve (fragmentation, level of support needed). Access required but context is key: local tech “know-how” and support The contributions of many are leveraged to create “solutions” that work and are easy to share, replicate and scale – and the technology is used to develop services which promote digital inclusion aims
