Overview
I'm the Chief Innovation Officer at Acumen Fund. We invest patient capital in businesses that deliver critical, affordable goods and services to the world's poor, improving the lives of millions. I speak and blog (http://sashadichter.wordpress.com) about generosity, philanthropy and social change, am the author of the Manifesto for Nonprofit CEOs and I helped create Generosity Day. I'm also proud that my Generosity talk was featured as a TED Best of the Web last year...talk about spreading an idea! (http://www.ted.com/talks/sasha_dichter.html) Before Acumen I worked at GE Capital, IBM, and Booz | Allen | Hamilton, and also had stints in Indonesia working for one of the world's largest microfinance institutions (Bank Rakyat Indonesia) and at the venture-backed startup, Navic Networks. Along the way I received a dual degree from Harvard Business School and Harvard Kennedy School in International Development.
