Real Value, a film by Nothing Underground explores the world of social business as a business model. The documentary is currently accepting funding on KickStarter to get their launch into mass media.
Featured speaker Kevin Trapani, president and CEO of the Redwoods Group, offers this insightful formula for social enterprise: "do important work, do that important work well and move it to scale." Many people are taken with the idea of social business as the means to creating lasting change in this world. As such, this documentary describes itself as "an independent documentary that explores real, profitable businesses that choose to focus not just on the bottom line, but on the health of their surrounding communities and the planet that we all share."
