A Business Model for Today’s Challenges
We face unprecedented global challenges: widening wealth gaps, energy crises, deforestation, and worsening pollution. Traditional corporations struggle to balance shareholder interests with community needs, often leading to market failures like underpaid labor and inadequate sanitation. Meanwhile, NGOs, reliant on donations and political climates, face limitations in their impact.
What’s the solution? Social businesses. Unlike traditional corporations, social businesses focus entirely on solving social or ecological issues while finding innovative market opportunities for sustainable financing—where profit meets purpose. If this interests you, dive deeper or get in touch!
