Business Philanthropy for Empowered Economy

An Economy that has been powered by the recent phenomenon of Globalization, has seen an integration of Corporate with Society. Organizations have realized the onus of giving back to the World they thrive-in; this World is nothing but the society – society that is ridden with illiteracy, malnutrition, pandemic diseases & the mother of all these evils – The ever-increasing Poverty.In 1991, futurist and noted author Peter Schwartz framed a remarkable period of transformation, which he described as the long boom – spanning from 1980 to 2020 – in his book The Art of the Long View. Schwartz sees a period of Economic & Social transition from fuelled by evolving technology, relentless Globalization & Knowledge Economy. Today, well past 2/3rd of the segment of this long boom, the entrepreneurs of this period have generated a wealth creation of near unimaginable levels, with great impact & implications – economically, politically, socially, and philanthropically.
