The concept of “blended value” was created and explained by Jed Emerson in his book “The Blended Value Proposition: Integrating Social and Financial Results”2

It is a business model by which companies combine a profit driven business with a social-value component, for example, fair trade.

Jed Emerson explains the concept of “blended value” as it follows:

“What the Blended Value Proposition states is that all organizations, whether for-profit or not, create value that consists of economic, social and environmental value components–and that investors (whether market-rate, charitable or some mix of the two) simultaneously generate all three forms of value through providing capital to organizations. The outcome of all this activity is value creation and that value is itself non-divisible and, therefore, a blend of these three elements.”
