As the smart phone revolution gathers momentum, the capacity for mobile technologies to play an ever more central role in bringing about positive social change also increases several fold. However, previous research has indicated that traditional charities may be too slow or risk averse – or perhaps lacking in skills or capability – to take full advantage of the array of the opportunities that new mobile technologies present. In 2014 we set out to find Mobile Social Entrepreneurs who were using mobile technologies to address social issues in order to gain a deeper understanding of: 1. The underlying factors that led to them starting on their particular journey 2. Why they focused on mobile technologies to help them achieve their goals and what they identify as being the main benefits of using mobile technologies 3. What lessons they have learned, and what they are most excited about harnessing in the mobile environment. Crucially, what this may all mean for the ‘traditional’ charity sector, and other institutions traditionally entrusted with stewardship of social causes. The report was commissioned by The Vodafone Foundation and will be available publcily later this year. https://static1.squarespace.com/static/51d2d007e4b0ae74dc6c0a94/t/567d360e69a91a9534949056/1451041721181/ work and projects - Fashion, Technology and the Digital Economy In October 2015 we hosted a research workshop entitled, What's Digital about Fashion Design? in partnership with The London College of Fashion and the initiative Fashion Innovation Research and Enterprise (FIREup), a collaborative platform uniting academia with designer and industry experts in order to share and gather information and help build commercially viable businesses. The session offered insight into current uses of technology within the designer fashion community and a facilitated discussion on the opportunities presented by the digital economy to create new business and economic models. The workshop is funded by NEMODE Network+ , an initiative under the Research Councils UK (RCUK)’s Digital Economy (DE) research programme to bring together communities to explore new economic models in the Digital Economy.

Its aim is to help organisations wanting to generate social value get to grips with innovative analytics and technology to become smarter, more efficient and make data-informed decisions. We'll be working with statisticians, data scientists, and engineers to make sure data isn’t just collected, measured and shareable, but that it gets to the right people and that those individuals understand it, and are empowered to make decisions with it. If you share our interest in the data agenda within the social sector do get in touch as we’re always open to collaborations and new partnerships. http://www.aamassociates.com/what-we-do-1 daily 0.75 2015-10-17 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/51d2d007e4b0ae74dc6c0a94/t/5622ce02e4b07de840ca972b/1445121579035/0AA03E91E8.jpg what we do -
