We are on the verge of a big shift to a new kind of economy in which entrepreneurship and innovation range freely across public and private sectors. We're at a critical juncture in our global economy. Gone are the siloed structures of the past where the public and private sectors functioned separately, rarely cross-pollinating to share ideas and models for addressing big problems and creating value. And for good reason. In The Solution Revolution, Deloitte's William Eggers and Paul Macmillan identify an accelerating shift toward a new operating paradigm, in which entrepreneurship and innovation range freely across all of the sectors that shape our lives as citizens and consumers. This shift offers a powerful spring of hope for public innovation in an era of financial constraints. From education to health care to transportation, exciting cross-sector partnerships are changing the game. The authors gather stories from across the globe highlighting the new players, the new currencies, and the disruptive business models that make up this new solution economy.We're still in the early stages of the solution economy's development, but the authors compellingly lay out the contours of the phenomenon, its primary features and dynamics, and provide advice to business, government, and the social sector on what they can do to strengthen and spread the larger revolution, both locally and globally. The stakes are high. Big problems proliferate-and no single sector can solve them alone. The Solution Revolution provides a fascinating preview of our economic future, a system where choice, sustainability, and more adaptive ecosystems offer all of us the ability to collaborate toward better solutions.
