"An entrepreneur is someone who dares to dream the dreams and is foolish enough to try to make those dreams come true."
"Innovative bottom up methods will solve problems that now seem intractable- from energy to poverty to disease. Science and technology ,powered by the fuel of entrepreneurial energy, are the largest multipliers of resources we have to solve our many social problems."

9 Opinion Leaders to debate with
sent 901 John Micklethwait, Editor The Economist 1 , 2 (I first met John in 1988 when he was compiling the survey the year of the brand)
John congratulations in coming a long way since we met 18 years ago, to discuss year of brand
I am sorry to need to say that the line that globalisation is doing the best it can for poverty is both very risky and the antithesis of what social entrepreneurs nets believe James Wilson stood for. I had frequent arguments with B.E on that but can no longer stand by passively regarding other influencers of The Economist
The timeline my father scripted back in 1984 in our orgiginal book on the genre now know as the world is flat though still called death of distance by some of Bush's Gathering stormers is here http://www.normanmacrae.com/netfuture.html#Anchor-Changin-27687 in one page overview
If you dont believe that globalisation can compound more to systemically end poverty, you might ask Jo Grimmond why he reviewed our book with the words: I am more than willing to accept that, if we were to use science along the lines that Norman Macrae suggests, we could transform the world
Our networks' argument since 1984 has been and remains that at least 7 collaboration waves will network around the world over the next decade uptilting or downtitling everyone depending how trustworthily (and ending-externalities transparently) we all participate. Be the wave: photosynthesis of clean energy 1, learning networks for our children 1, cross-cultural understanding and celebrations in inner city project hubs, ending systemic poverty, restoring public broadcast media to cover big human questions with as much attention as sport and linking this to one internet debating bookmark, revolution in economics to represent all peoples knowledge economies not the big gets bigger etc
Tell me if you or your teams want more links etc from me at any stage
cheers
