<p>we welocome connections with anyine who is active in wise because they wanted to undersrand livelihood education and the other innovatuons that sir fazle abed and brac gravitated as the firts laureate and alumni summit of iwse</p>
<p>here is a converstion we have been exploring with team leaders around the 6th wise laureate </p>
<div><div>Dear Camille Foundation Ashesi (6th wise laureate network)</div>
<div><span>Probably the best news i have seen this century is just over 2 months ago jack ma of alibaba took 20% share in brac's fintech network which already has gates foundation multiplying its methods in africa</span></div>
<div>As you know for nearly 10 years now I wanted to make sure that brac and sir fazle abed kept well connected with the future of edutech fintech as well as real world girls adolescent clubs and every value chain we can transform round sme and thriving local communities everywhere goal 11 as well as 1 and 5 etc.<span> </span><font size="2">I have also copied javeed mary and marta as the 3 people i spent most time with in qatar as we were all looking from different collaboration perspectives (marta i met at wise spain- she designs experiential learning for every child in barcelona international school, javeed a new york educator and technologist whose passion is the future of children in india and i interviewed a lot of the educationforall people who are a permanent hub at the UN for refugee learning, mary is the american who sits on chinese thinks tanks on the future of education as well as eg leading headstart partnership in brazil) though our common denominator is youth urgently need education to value their livelihoods and their only chance to be the sustainability generation</font></div>
<div>Fortunately we were able to reconnect with jack ma's main academic researcher who amy and i had meet at tsinghua university in beijing. She said she wanted a week tour of girl empowering dhaka so mostofa, brac's<span> </span><b>director of education dr islam and brac head office are now arranging that sept 30 to october 6 (asd you probably know brac also has a university- whilst its for profit it aims in key schools like the james grant school of public health to offer the curriculum public servants need to do the best job for the poorest)</b></div>
<div><b><a href="http://valuetrue.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/14surveysonglobalpeoples.pptx" target="_self"><img src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2772169869?profile=original" width="465" class="align-full"/></a></b></div>
<div>my understanding is we welcome guests who want the same things for poorest and girls especially as sir fazle - whether those guests come in person or submit a one pagers which we can get everyone to look at and relevantly follow up- i would still like to see the new university movement in afruca be one core of this and mostifa will renew contact with taddy blecher in s africa - jack ma' scouts through unctad are already filling up places of the first 500 alumni of his new global business coding school in Hangzhou - which is mainly scholarship based - whilst i know kenya and rwanda student streams form part of the recruitment i dont know about most countries though mostofa can probably find out more if you need to know, as i assume brac africa will do too</div>
<div>jack has said that education is the main problem - and from 2020 he will try and focus on it- he knows full well that commerce and finance can get to some markets but not to other ones like education health sports arts cultures and indeed every market that need community building youth and thriving local livelihoods</div>
<div>if you have questions please address particularly to mostofa if he can find out info on the chinese side- and if they need chinese tramslation amy can help too -the wise at beijing i attended was so far ahead on edutech that we still havent begun to help people who only speak english to catch up</div>

This year, the organizers of the Collaborative hope to attract more international participants and make the event truly Pan-African.

<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p> </p>
<p>MAJOR ACADEMIC CONTRIBUTIONS</p>
<ul>
<li>“The Financial Differentiations,” the paper claims that individual’s financing activity is an important component of “Free Enterprise and Free Competition.” Through market segmentations and the “Quantity Discrimination,” individual’s freedom for finance can be honored. Only in the internet/digital economy, financial differentiation can lead the financial market to the economic efficiency.</li>
<li>The Alibaba Way: Unleashing Grassroots Entrepreneurship to Build the World’s Most Innovative Internet Company, The World Edition of English by McGraw Hill Educational Press. January 2016. The book is listed in THE GLOBAL BUSINESS THOUGHT LEADER SERIES. The book addresses the function of public goods & services by private Internet companies. These companies enable grassroots entrepreneurship and facilitate job creations in the society.</li>
<li>“Business Creation is Job Creation: Estimating Entrepreneurial Jobs,” using several large databases in the US, the paper empirically demonstrates that in the process of creating businesses, entrepreneurs not only create jobs for others, but most importantly for their own. The paper estimates that only about 1/4 of new jobs go to “employed workers” and the rest 3/4 belong to “self-employed entrepreneurs.” The Wall Street Post, the Harvard Business Review and many other media across the USA cited the paper.

<li>“An Examination of Entrepreneurial Effort,” a seminal theoretical paper presented at the 2006 American Economic Association Annual Conference in Boston. Using neo-classical economics framework, the paper explains: 1) why do entrepreneurs create businesses; 2) what the role of entrepreneurial effort is in the macroeconomy; 3) what the role of government is in the allocation of entrepreneurial efforts; and 4) what the role of “Initial Capital” is in the allocation of entrepreneurial efforts.</li>
<li>“Business Density, Entrepreneurship and Economic Well-Being,” research paper presented at the 2005 American Economic Association Conference in Philadelphia. Using the US 50-states data, this paper is the only paper known relating business pervasiveness to people’s economic wellbeing. The paper estimates that increasing 1% of business density escalates personal income, household income and tax revenue by more than 1%. Especially, the test indicates the impact of women business ownership to be more robust in improving economic well-being.</li>

<p><span><b><font>Text | Liu Ying</font></b></span></p>
<p><span><b><font>Professor of Economics, School of Social Sciences, Tsinghua University</font></b></span></p>
<p><font> Professor William Baumol has systematically introduced the theory of economic growth based on innovation and entrepreneurship into the field of mainstream microeconomics: the first is his 1993 book Entrepreneurship (Translation and Publishing of Wuhan University Press) The second time is the "Growth of Capitalism Growth in 2002 - Free Market Innovation Machine" (translated and published by CITIC Publishing House); the third time is the microeconomic theory of innovation that my colleague and I translated together. (will be published by Gezhi Publishing House).</font></p>
<p><font> These unremitting efforts come from Baumol's regret for life, that is, innovative entrepreneurs are the protagonists of creating modern technology and civilization. Economics lacks a highly abstract mathematical analysis and rigorous analytical derivation.<span> </span>He often quotes the British saying "there is no Hamlet of the Danish prince" to describe the situation in which mainstream economic growth theory ignores research entrepreneurs.</font></p>

<p>How much credit can be given to entrepreneurship for the unprecedented innovation and growth of free-enterprise economies? In this book, some of the world's leading economists tackle this difficult and understudied question, and their responses shed new light on how free-market economies work--and what policies most encourage their growth.<br/><br/>The contributors take as their starting point William J. Baumol's 2002 book<span> </span><i>The Free-Market Innovation Machine</i><span> </span>(Princeton), which argued that independent entrepreneurs are far more important to growth than economists have traditionally thought, and that an implicit partnership between such entrepreneurs and large corporations is critical to the success of market economies.<br/><br/>The contributors include the editors and Robert M. Solow, Kenneth J. Arrow, Michael M. Weinstein, Douglass C. North, Barry R. Weingast, Ying Lowrey, Nathan Rosenberg, Melissa A. Schilling, Corey Phelps, Sylvia Nasar, Boyan Jovanovic, Peter L. Rousseau, Edward N. Wolff, Deepak Somaya, David J. Teece, Naomi R. Lamoreaux, Kenneth L. Sokoloff, Yochanan Shachmurove, Ralph E. Gomory, Jonathan Eaton, Samuel S. Kortum, Alan S. Blinder, Robert J. Shiller, Burton G. Malkiel, and Edmund S. Phelps.</p>

<p>yes the name may have been different but brac did invent this kjind of giving which basically provides evidence to a donor of who gets aid with waht specific result</p>
<p></p>
<p>these days people talk about can big data be colected and small analysus done on it to make sure the aid and solution connect exactly -sir fazle abed's methid was simpler- he lived among the poorest and could experiment until a solution worked</p>
<p></p>
<p>the case in point which came before brac built the rural health system concerns oral rehydration - an infant who would otherwise die of diarrhea can be saved if the mother recogises the symptoloms adn mixes biled water salts and sugars in the right proportion</p>
<p>however peer to peer training of this concept acrioss a mainly illiterate population took several rehearsals- if brac had been a top gown aid organsiation it would have convluded nationawide training of vilage mothers in oral rehydration was possible- in this case unicef was the donor who paod brac for proving how many vilage mothers it had trained</p>
<p></p>
<p>so with bottom up hub desiogns- and two innovative new funding models bangladesh grassroots womens netirks traformed the market for aid - with models that are many times more effective efficient an ex[pandable than anything rich funders of aid had ever seen</p>
<p></p>
<p>this brings us to an inconvenenient questions- are the G7 (rich western naations) used to designing sustainable economic models- the answer if you look at hostry is no - in fact you could asay that the world wars were consequence of colonial economics being non-sustainable - -before tere was colonisation economies were aproxiately the size of their populations- at the height of colonialims aboiyt 10% of the worlds people owned a sixable majority of the whoel fincial economy</p>
<p></p>
<p>the stiry gets mire opeculair -while some say the term economics started with adma smit - most of adams main hypotheses are still today competelky abused by western economists</p>
<p>we should not be surprised that facing famine muhamad yunus tire up the western marcoc=evonomic theory book and took hois clsss outside to the vilages to innovate some solutions</p>
<p></p>
<p>both his gramen bank with its officai constitution in 1983 and brac which started in 11 years earler are wirtyh studying for every market they design to include the poorest livelihoods</p>
