They can be called many things:

1. A minority

2. A special interest group

3. Activists

4. Radicals

5. Extremists

6. Reformers

These terms apply to society and culture, but do not cover all the subgroups. For example, a group of scientists may make a discovery that goes against the grain of currently accepted beliefs. They can, as a group, work hard to get their ideas accepted by mainstream society. There aren't really large-scale categories that fit such groups other than that of visionary.

Steve Jobs was a visionary who, by advancing his ideas in the technological arena, changed the world we live in. Stephen Hawking, another visionary, is a brilliant astronomer/mathemetician/scientist whose thinking has also changed the world we live in. Mother Theresa, a visionary, had a huge impact on the world.
