Muhammad Yunus expresses faith in entrepreneurs at G20 summit

Posted on: November 23, 2011
Category: News

Microfinance Focus, November 4, 2011: Professor Muhammad Yunus was invited to deliver a key note speech during the G20 Young Entrepreneurs Summit held in Nice, France. Professor Yunus addressed an audience of more than 400 entrepreneurs from all G20 countries. In his speech, he shared his personal entrepreneurship experiences, his faith in young entrepreneurs to be the pillars of society and the need to include poor countries in the discussion process in making global decisions.

Professor Yunus being an entrepreneur himself started off creating the Grameen Bank that provides microfinance services to the poor who had little access to financial provisions. From that, he ventured into a wide number of social businesses such as Grameen Nursing College, Grameen Eyecare Hospitals, Grameen Shakti, etc.

He has always considered young entrepreneurs to be the most effective solution for the future. He said “In my opinion, G20 YES is a fabulous initiative, gathering so much energy and momentum from all over the world. Because of their creativity and leadership, provided that they commit to share the value they create, these 400 young entrepreneurs in this room can change the world.”

Professor Yunus is also a member of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) Advocacy Group, advising the Secretary General of the United Nations. Hence, he believes that the next generation of youths should be handed over the process of the MDGs as soon as possible. He believes that entrepreneurs will have a key role to play in fulfilling the MDGs, if they are committed to the social value created by their companies, and social business can be part of the solutions.

In his speech, he added that the G20 needed to broaden its scope to deal with the current world crisis. It can no longer remain a political forum with economic agendas. The G20 needs to create a social agenda as well. Professor Yunus proposes that ‘social business’ should be brought to the agenda of G20, as one of the concrete and effective solutions to be considered for immediate implementation so as to guide capitalistic investment towards social value and jobs creation, rather than sheer profit maximization strategies. A social business is a cause-driven business where profits stay within the company for its sustainability.

Lastly, Professor Yunus concluded that the G20 should be expanded into the G25, where poor countries from each continent should be included in the global agenda which they are part of. He added that “Their problems are inter-related with others, and their proposals of solutions should be considered by the most economically advanced countries in making global decisions. A G25 would be a big step toward ensuring that global social issues are raised, and MDGs implementation is fully shared on the global agenda. And finally, because fighting poverty together is the only way to bring long lasting peace in this world.”

urgent Entrepreneurial Union post 18 Nov 2011 - please circulate to any friends of youths most productive decade - chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk facebook dc hotline 1 301 881 1655

Having researched 2000 readers of yunus book on social busienss economics up to 2010, my base scenario developed after 3 visits to dhaka at the start of 2011 is that Hasina http://www.economist.com/node/21525908 will have nationalised everything of yunus' 8 million poor membership by spring 2012 in preparation for ending free elections in Bangladesh at year end

 

Whether timing of my guess is right or wrong the sustainability strategy friends of yunus –and other great Bangladeshi innovators including sir fazle abed at brac and iqbal quadir at MIT -  have been developing over last 12 months is which of his project (microbanking, microenergy, microtelecoms, microhealth, microeducation ... ) networks can different regions take over responsibility for?

 

Investors in youth in Japan, France, Spain, and probably China have clear responsibility plans on how to keep the 35 year knowledge-action and microeconomics networks of Bangladesh grassroots networks alive

 

http://ec.europa.eu/internal_market/social_business/index_en.htm On friday the game was raised at level of what could EU represent and nick hurd potted half of a billion dollar (dormant accounts) fund matching yunus type goals; the eu president Jose Manuel Barroso, 3 directorates, 4 other country’s ministers committed collaboration round this last chance to save the union from collapsing youth’s employment

 What Will London  Economically Lead & Mediate Now Yunus, Youth and EU's fate are twinned?

As yet, there is no centre of yunus-type energy networking, and there are other opportunities (eg youth 1000 job creation brainstorming already tested successfully)  for London to prepare to be most networked centre of. That is if we agree that my dad (see Consider Bangladesh leaflet launched at The Economist's remembrance party of my father) and yunus’ frame of economics and celebration of entrepreneurship provides best invest models in next generations jobs.

 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZFGqFWuX0lA   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65GONYCqM_k

Getting London’s role agreed before the olympics is crucial for dad, my daughter and my professional networks geared to changing how global brand leaders budget, value goodwill and define corporate responsibility in above zero-sum ways. And clearly dad’s friend Rupert Murdoch is looking to redeem his legacy, and to do this it would be timely to announce around the olympics that he will stop interfering with what the BBC’s world service role now needs to be.

sincerely

NOT MY NEWS OF THE WORLD
 
Hello young people everywhere from Tunisia to Egypt , Greece to Spain , Japan to Bangladesh .  

 

Don’t despair. The 2010s can be the most exciting decade for us to lead productive lives as long as we know which media and economics to get rid of, as well as whose social actions to joyfully celebrate.

 

That was the severe test my granddad set himself and fellow journalists for humanity - over 40 years of reporting for The Economist.  And that’s why Norman Macrae also asked people like me to storytell his life’s good news fables once a year after his parting in the summer of 2010.

 

Every time the dumbest media in the world collapses that is a good news opportunity. In Britain this weekend youth have cause to celebrate the end of The News of The World . Wrapped up in the 20th century’s most popular tabloid was everything we don’t need  advertisers to celebrate as young people take on the greatest sustainability games ever played.

 

Let’s hope the BBC in particular remembers that as it chooses how to celebrate the Olympics – Queen Elizabeth’s swansong for the joy of youth, commonwealth and linking in sustainability community actions everywhere.

 

The News of the World made the worst use of mobile telecoms of any media platform. Since Norman first discussed how to network with mobile telecoms in 1984 his entrepreneurial revolution friends have had 27 years searching for best uses.

 

We recommend nothing is more exciting to mobilise than what started in 1996 in Bangladesh when 100000 global villages hubs of the world’s poorest mothers started linking in sustainability economics. We invite thousands of youth to diarize good news stories of info technology at YouthandYunus.com  - this happy dotcom is spelt

Y O U T H A N D Y U N U S

 

Lets hope the world’s most powerful people join youth in exciting lessons on how NOT to use mobile phones. Give the Murdoch family the chance to invite the net generation to co-create good news media in the place of the most salacious gossip sheet in his empire. The strongest newspapers have always blended whole truth journalistic curiosity with at most a couple of goals chosen to improve the next generation’s lot.

 

YES YOU CAN

Lets help the Murdoch’s make their millennium goals wish come true.  Let it be that their family re-examine how their most powerful media can help youth celebrate another way to bail out banks. Join Queen Sofia's summit on this in Spain in November.  It is economically possible for media to help find a way in which youth are not trapped in picking up all the bills of their elders. As we all found out in 2008, this remains the urgent and defining good news story of the decade –the one that will shape generations and planet, for ever and a day.

 

Good News Bottomines:

 

1 Places everywhere now need structures that mediate investments in their youth’s

co-production of heroic goals.

 

2 Consider how stories of bankabillion networks can be designed round girl power are so much more joyous than banking designed for ever fewer big brothers.

 

3 Bon courage Rupert Murdoch, Au Revoir Norman Macrae

Most exciting invitations to 3000 leaders and youth by dr yunus are confirmed by findings from a life at the centre of journalising entrepreneurial economics www.worldeconomist.net

 

Exponential games of creating jobs  -economics rules the world but whose world – our next generations or past generations do we wish economics to stimulate

 

Places Need to get into investing in sector before its jobs starts doubling – investing 7 years ahead – societies and national govs planning paradox versus short-term manipulators; why economics hippocratic oath is exponential

 

–except for dictatorships, usa and other developed nations now bottom of league in investing in sectors with job creating future: developed nations need genius economists of developing nations more than vice versa

 

The greatest innovation advantage of net generation is collaboration advantage of places not competitive advantage – consider bangladesh sustainability world trade centre

 

Exponential futures are predictable- whose maps win-win-win between productivities and demands; whose lose lose lose

 

Health families & communities & society generate strong economies not vice versa – healthy societies are generateddby 3-i-mn-on bank*community market*knowledge hub

 

Blocking future mapping are The compound risk crisis of global professions

 

True growth paradigms of mapping (and maths of integration) are multidimensional and context specific not command and controling by over-standardising rules. What’s needed is value multiplication (operand of connectivity and naturally interfacing networks of living systems) models not value add (separability and dead things). Specifically global tangible accountants have  monopoly over boardrooms that spreadsheets 3 enormous exponentially crashing errors that turn goodwill into badwill : additive bottom lines risks at boundaries and valuing things s investment peoples s costs to cut

 

Daring nations will halve gov spends on ruling social services but transfer these spends to communities to empower social businesses and inter-community replications that net technology now makes possible

 

Its is possible to choose economics to design integration of local into global; so that we multiply productivity of 7 billion people but that is not what 20th c macroeconomists were hired to do- 10 biggest 20th century errors that have spun destruction are ...

 

The only organisations worth hi-trust investing in have  purpose beyond monetary-extraction; the only people who cant win from www evolution of purposeful organisations through exciting 2010s are speculators. We need to survey youths greatest goals for 2020 now and economics maps to match them

because of the social business model Grameen invests in more solar unit installation than all of usa banking- we have to value this ; bangladesh will be the first 100 million population to be washed away unless the world collaborates in ending climate crisis- thriving carbon negative economies are possible - come benchmark with dhaka a world epicentre of sustainability

 because we are a bank for the poorest dont under-estimate what we invest the poorest's monies in - bangladesh's partners aim to be as much a world leader of mobiles as bangalore was with the internet http://www.grameensolutions.com/ http://bankabillion.org/ - we invite all micro economists to join us in the net generation's race to end poverty and co-create 7 billion jobs worthy of lifetime amd community service  
Ali Baba 09

I wish to compete and collaborate with Dr Yunus in job creation's human race - at alibaba and on behalf of chinese technologists for the peoples - we pledge creating 100 million microentrepreneurial jobs is possible through 2010s

if your leadesrhip systems serves customers and employees then you compound great returns for shareholders too - no company with a sustainable future needs speculator shareholders; wherever speculators rule, macroeconomics becomes (is sponsor of) the Big Brother theory of how to become ever less economic- isn't that the main action learning of the 2000s?

.  Sofia- can you help improve right hand pic? can we 1000 Yunus book readers and 10000 dvd linksmakers share another way of looking at the CP12 whilst at the same time explaining why I prefer the box order I have shown you it seems to me that if the groundedness of all microeconomics replications is social business case banks like grameen, bracs and jamii boras then there are 2 ways round mediating this left is reform social systems; currently the productivity of world bank is zero; that of the UN is negative; that of many ngos and social entrepreneurs is unsustainable and not scalable; so we need foundations cp2 that are both sustainable and whose identity empowers like nike's girl effect; we need in designing CP3 social business Olympics festival to take everything we can learn from microcreditsummit heroic goals, welcoming panels by each goal and celebration by CP4 place leaders like queen sofia; we need the heroines and heroes of social world to have many more Cp5 world famous stages like nobel prizes; and we ultimately need the whole world including professions 2.0 (who have a semi monopoly to rule over us and whose laws even frame the transparency of what organizational typologies peoples can start up) to integrate around CP6 exponentially smart system designs going right we need the time CP12 netizens spend (when they are hoping to make the world better and aiming to reduce degrees of separation around poverty-ending knowhow) to be mapped collaboratively the way our hub meeting of 2005 tried to start as well as informed by and open sourcing of social business modeling; we need to harness that around CP11 educational-vocational-microentrepreneur (inside) systems and local communities/governance/ restoration of family-valuing cultures that help youth create 1 billion new tech jobs; we need CP10 social business funds to include prizes for social action teams (yunus chapter 11) be these the last year people are at school before needing to co-create jobs or at university sb clubs- we need to encourage young people to dream by letting them try out micro-=experiments until dreams and realities linking; we need to change the big 3 systems CP9-CP7 that currently give caswell's "we :and sustainability no compound free voice - universities, corporations and govs of nations that need to collaborate in the worldwide sustainability issues and take economics way above zero sum and stop compounding risks at boundaries so that's what the transformation to microeconomics, or micro system design integration or sustainability will take; currently we are in a macroeconomic down world accelerating ever more irreversibly towards a maximum of 1 billion jobs that maximise peoples lifes; and likely to cause collapse of climates of banking of peace and everything; so 2010s is an exciting time; and having seen this with benefit of 1984 (book of 2024 report I gave you) or earlier surveys made in 1976 at bicentennial of usa, I promise you that as far as I know these really are the last few years we can turn round to micro up- hope we can remain optimistic and high esteemed about this opportunity and prevent people fro getting trapped in the threats male decision-making cannot achieve much of this – even  yunus cannot- I rather suspect the quality of networking of women with hi self-esteem but 20 years experience of adult life is where the epicentre of world sustainability economics will need to be spinning round- do you see an alternative empowerment leadership scenario?

....Does your country, or family tree, offer any insights. For example, Scottish insights:
  •  Adam Smith's work is a risposte to the banking scam of 1700 which caused scotland to be annexed as a colony of England
  • The premature death in early 1860s of Scottish founder of The Economist 10 months into a project in calcutta involving reform of Raj economics. James Wilson died from a disease whose 10 cents a go solution became the birth of BRAC and its village nursing networks
  • From Messina to Tokyo, 7 years in a Scot's journalist journey to where French , Germans and Japanese renewed peace, and healthy economies to be, before (other) mass media participated.
.The Scots went from a 17th centuryof being Europe's highest investor in children's learning to lower than English levels. One of James' Wilson's 2 goals for The Economist (before his intent of closing it) was repeal of capital punishment- a law that licensed big city irresponsibility for youth. To be bron europe to the new 20th century was quite a dismal hand for that generation. Let's hope we stop making the 21st Century a global top-down rerun.

 

What health warnings are critical to know about before studying, let alone issuing, rules of economcs

....

True or False:  The history of macroeconomics can be reviewed as having more patches in it than microsoft code. Each patch seems designed to turn round what the previous rule compounded for too long and with ever higher cost to all trapped in its system error.

 Markets and organisations are tense systems of productive and demanding relationships spinning around purpose. What is measured and what knowledge is empowered to flow determines whether compound growth or destruction of the system is already invested into the system.  99% of our globalising world's 1000 biggest organisations are governmed by similar metrics- guess whether these are metrics of sustainability or metrics of systems waiting to crash

My guess is that 5000 youth ambassadors of networking Bangladeshi microeconomics and practising entrepreneurially designed replication franchises need to
1) do an iq test on exponentials
2) understand the triad of sustainability crises below
3) increasingly ask Grameen and BRAC to adopt a joint approach internationally

Diagnosing poverty as a SYSTEM FAILURE –ie where EXPONENTIAL loss of sustainability  needs to be turned round -involves the compound microeconomics  of 3 main dimensions ( PIC ):

Personal discrimination?

Information and rules?

Channels or infrastructure?

Bangladesh ’s PIC involved all 3 dimensions,

. – grameen in Bangladesh worked on Personal (ending discrimination against women and families) and Information centres; since 1989 Grameen Trust has . while brac in Banglaesh worked on distribution and information ; recently BRAC has been making exponential headway in some parts of africa where it has now been mainly channel .A post-mobile kenya seems mainly to involve C channel ownership (including housing and top-down markets) and I information (health & youth education) and rules – jamii bora (together with future capitalism partners and international goodwill to kenya ) is in place to transform all of these exponentially fast, and provide a model of inspiration for many analogous african crises ..
Today America (and richer nations ruled by top-down macroeconomics)  are exponemtially most at risk of compounding poverty traps due to channel ownership, misinformation and rules
.Perhaps we can raise this at may 29 meeting with dr yunus so he can tell us if this is or is not valid; invite brac or other major bangladeshi microcredits or women's and yes we can 10000 groups (aka student universities) to june 29 if it is valid

golden future history revisited: 76 was a triply empowering time in the microeconomic development of the world since:

1 microcredit trials began in this year

2 The Economist surveyed a next capitalism in which macro-banking and other too big to systemise sectors would need to be replaced by 2010

3 Future historians can identify this as the year that Bangladesh started to build and connect 5 sustainability invetsment models of collobarative innovation networking which have become that nation's unique practical and intellectual gift to the world - a publishing genre which will be launched in June 29 out of Bamgladesh

http://www.yytube.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=69:qaa-muhammad-yunus&catid=37:news&Itemid=61
You usually use the term social business instead of social enterprise. Can you explain the difference between them?


What I was trying to do was to take [entrepreneurship] in one particular direction: turning it into creating a social business. Social business is a business, where you don't want to make money for yourself, but you solve the problem with the business model. This is different from social entrepreneurship. A social entrepreneur may not be involved in a business at all, it could be just helping your neighbourhood, improving healthcare, helping people to do that in a new way.


What will you be focusing on over the next six months?


I have been over years spending more and more time on promoting social business, setting up social business, bringing social business to courses at universities, helping design social business institutes and universities ... answering questions related with social business.

This is what I will continue to devote time to. Because now social business is spreading in many more countries – previously it was only in Bangladesh and one or two other countries – this will take up a lot of my time.


Which countries do you think are leading the way in social business and why do you think this is happening? Where is the concept of social business most developed?


One is Bangladesh. France is very interested. They have created a social business chair in a business school and they have many companies participating in social business. Its government is very much interested; we are talking of social business in the context of G20, during its presidency of G20 they want to promote the concept of social business.

Also in Japan, and Germany. The mayor of Wiesbaden, Germany, has declared the city a social business city .


What was the inspiration behind the Grameen bank?


When I began I was not thinking about creating anything, I was thinking about demonstrating something that might work. I was not looking for examples around the world. I was just thinking if I do it in this way maybe it will work. I was not thinking about creating an institution.

So I learnt by doing. I started in one way and continued in that direction. I never had a blueprint that I have to do this year this, next year that, third year this and on the fifth year that. I was always thinking that if I do one more step it will be over and everybody will be happy.


Your partnership with Danone is well known. What has been learnt from it?


It was the first time we had a partnership with a huge multinational company. Until then people where very doubtful about the social business idea. It was something that never makes any sense to business people; maybe for NGOs or some individuals, but definitely not a serious business proposition. When Danone's chairman came forward and said I would like to join with you to do a social business everyone [thought] if Danone does it, then it must be serious.

After that other companies came forward. So today it is a legitimate business and nobody questions the involvement of well-known CEOs in social business. HEC business school became interested [the school now runs a social business certificate programme], if the CEOs are doing it, our students must learn about what they are doing. So that became another subject of economic interest. Today young people are interested.


Have you ever thought about leaving Bangladesh?


I could have settled in the USA, I was there, teaching. I finished my degree there. Many like me never come back. Bangladesh's history is not a small history, there are lots of ups and downs, a lot of violence – but I have no intention of leaving the country.


Is money the problem or what we do with it?


Money is not the problem in the sense if you could make good use of it. But for many the accumulation of money has become an obsession. It is widely accepted 'the more money I have, the more successful I am'. We should not measure success with money. To me human life success should be measured with what contribution you have made in making this planet a better place. And what kind of life you have lived on this planet. Money per se is a piece of paper ... It is what you do with the money, what impact you create with the money that's important.


Many people all over the world are starting social businesses having been inspired by your work. What would you say to them?


They have enormous capacity to make an impact in the world. Pick a subject, pick a problem, design a business to solve that problem, and take it from there.
