IDEA Enterpreneurship

The Power Of Idea
Capitalism is changing. Cash, the currency of capitalism and its prime driver, no longer rules. Today, successful capitalism is about successful ideas. Ideas, not cash, spawn new businesses. Ideas help companies grow. Ideas create wealth. Ideas burn cash and produce billionaires. But most importantly, ideas change lives. And ideas build the nation..
The shift in the balance of power away from cash and towards the idea is one of the reasons why capitalism is changing. If cash driven capitalism was all about creating wealth. idea-driven capitalism is all about changing lives. This is a profound impact on business, economy, society and mankind.
Not that capitalism 2.0 ignores wealth creation. But transformation of the nation and mankind at large is now taking precedence over mercenary wealth creation. Now, the fruit of capitalism has now become the seed of greater common good. The foundations run on ideas and not rules. Enterpreneurship is rising above profit minded nature of capitalism.
More power to the idea. Ultimately, only ideas change lives. Not governments. Not businesses.
