Radicalism and pragmatism can co-exist, but there are essential pre-conditions to social entrepreneurship. Access to new and different financial resources forms a critical part of the answer. But the ethics, policy, regulation and gover- nance have got to be right too.

Just as China adopted an ‘open door’ policy on economic development nearly thirty years ago, so it has cracked open the doors to social development. State agencies admit they must change; NGOs, Chinese enterprises and multi-national corporations have all been called upon to play their role. At this historic juncture, this panel will assess whether the costs of such rapid economic growth are too great, or whether China can broker a new marriage between wealth and well-being and achieve what the Premier has envisaged as ‘a harmonious society’. This state in transition has reflections – and new opportunities – for everyone.
