Adidas shoes for less than one euro? Muhammad Yunus reimagined our social future and helped make it happen. Yunus argues that too many busi nesses are focused exclusively on financial profits.
For a new world to emerge, Yunus believes we need a new structure: creat ing social businesses to solve social problems.
A social business is financially sustainable but does not pay dividends; in stead, any profits stay within the business to fund future activities. Its focus is solving social problems, such as providing employment or addressing health and educational issues.
Yunus concludes that there is no invisible hand; it is up to us to reimagine and create the social structure we need.
