Ah spring (at least in this hemisphere).
The snow has melted, the buds are starting to open and the birds are chirping. So are the Twitter birds, of course. Here are a few good eggs from the week that we’ve gathered into our nest. (OK, that’s enough with the bird metaphors).
As always, please send general social enterprise topics to @NextBillion or NB managing editor @ScotterAnderson, global health topics to @NextBillionHC and financial inclusion and impact investing topics to @NextBillionFI.
Happy Sunday and happy tweeting.
