However, after the establishment ofAshoka in 1980 the social sector began to develop. Bill Drayton (Drayton), the founder ofAshoka: Innovators for the public, has contributedmainly to the development of the social sector. The enterprise that he founded is responsible for bringing in major social reforms in various countries.
