Ever since the winter of 1994 in seattle,  jack ma has been asking 21^st c sustainability’s most valuable question – how can the worldwide web be designed to create jobs everywhere. His answer has been mapping how big data partners and coding platforms can be developed in every market space so that hard working small enterprises (particularly village ones ie those that industrial revoilution 1 excluded from trading infrastuctures

 

In China,  Jack whose first 30 years of life 1964-1994 were spent learning and then peer to peer teaching or translating English,  has become both one of the world’s most trusted and wealth businessmen. His ecommerce company Ali Baba designs 2 parallel types of mobile-web channels – one THE MALL to make money with the rich shopping patterns , one TAO BAO so that the smallest hardworking ‘village” enterprises have a level playing field in world trade.

 

Ali Baba’s designs are about maximizing big data collection to benefit small local market players and to map supply chain logistics. They are not about Ali Baba getting involved in inventory itself.

 

China since 1976 is the greatest billion plus person financial miracle anyone can study. But is has unique characteristics. There were no non-state owned businesses before 1976. The first wave of businesses to be permitted were diaspora owned bring huge inward investment to the content from the superports and trading structures that had made the diaspora throd richest to america and Japanese. The second wave permitted from the late 1980s were those the Party trusted to privatize utilities.

 

THIRD WAVE CHINESE CAPITALISM

By allowing Jack Ma to lead the emergence of 3 huge internet companies through the 2000s, China stayed clear of all of the wars between brick and click dependent companies that caused the USA economy much waste from dotcoms to enrons to worldcoms to subprimes.  China is in a position to make the best of real communities and digital transparency.  While 2008 was the year of ill fortune for any economy caught up in sub-prime for the small enetreprise economies jack ma aimed to free markets around it was the year when 2 new innovation dynamics became unstoppable:

• Universal connectivity through smart phones nit just text phones
• Blockchain

 

These new dynamics mean the somewhat sheltered decade of China’s first there internet companies is now blossoming as what Ma calls 4^th industrial revolution with smart aps and smart city projects stimulating creative destruction all over China.

 

By 2010 Ali Baba knew that it could not only lead ecommerce product channels to maximize SME inclusion but also digital financial services through alipay and ant finance. It refinanced from its Hong Kong Stockholding to one of the most extraordinary global IPOs. In effect Jack Ma was interested in sharing a benchmark solution for the future of financing small shopkeepers and producers not just for job creating and sustainability goals in china but for anywhere valuing job hungry youth worldwide. All the while he needed to own China’s behest shopping day 11/11 which Ali Baba created as the year’s biggest gift giving day and preview of the coming years greatest fashions.  Note the timing. Now savvy world class businesses make sure they are premeiere2 with the smartest the world has to offer for 11/11 ahead of Western Holidays shopping extravaganza.

 

If Hangzhou (Ma’s home town) is technology’s 4^th supercity alongside its geographical neighbor shanghai and with beijing to the north and Shenzhen to the south, its renewing its proud history of Marco Polo’s world trade epicenter of the old silk road. So it was natural for China’s Party leaders to choose Hangzhou as the venue of China G20 and a reframing of sustainability goals as the greatest Collaboration goals that older and younger generations have ever needed to interface. The question one Jack ma was asking in 1994 is pretty much the most popular question across the whole of 1.4 billion peoples China now. And Xi Jinping starts his second 5 year term in 2017 – with the chance to choose 6 out of 7 of China’s top policy makers. Jinping’s global leadership dairy is very interesting to track. Over and lover the G20 collaboration opportunities are brainstormed with Asean infrastructure bankers, with BRICS , with 50 countries linked in by One Belt One Road let alone the gateway that opens up to China’s sustainability investments in Africa, with the intended meeting with Pope Francis and with a view to maximizing positive China trade and Taoist cultural exchange with Franciscans Argentina’s G20 (completing East and Southern hemisphere’s union in sustainability generation), and India G20 in 2019   

 

China for all its extraordinary financial success has a social safety net weakness. The parents of the extraordinary story of chinese capitalism coming out worldwide from 1976 are now dependent for health and pensions in their old age on the half of china aged under 30. China’s internal inclusion policy and end of corruption are topmost in Jinping’s job but only freeing SME world trade can make this naturally and youthfully possible,  Moreover most of China’s youth come from one child families. Designing both the most productive and sustainability’s greatest livelihoods is now in the interest of both public servant leaders and the most admired businessmen. The club of chains’ lading business men is located in Beijing quite close to tsinghua university which is responsible for the majority of modern party leaders. This businessmen’s clubs has elected Jack Ma as their chair. He is in a good position to select which businessmen see market leadership as a responsibilitry for developing all of china’s people.

 

Meanwhile Jack has clarified that his colleagues are the great coders – his 2 brilliant abilities are 1 checking how simple to use any coding is; 2 to brainstorm many future sectors back from the future. He’s focusing his talents, so it would appear, on 6 main compasses:

 

 

• making sure Hangzhou keeps its collaboration promises to youth sustainability world made at china g20
• Education –jack clarifies –half of world youth wont have successful livelihood chances by 2030 unless we transform education around greatest #learinggeneration
• Philanthropy and aid
• Environment
• worldwide partnerships extending ecommerce platforms to a world wide free market of enterprise ESWTP and understanding how blockchain can be used in any global village market to maximize value of SMEs and minimize costs of intermediaries
• changing mass media so that it becomes as educationaly smart as his valuation of digital media has been since first seeing the www in seattle in late 1994 –ali baba’s has aquired china’s equivalent of youtube and has announced sponsorship of the olympics up to 2028; Jack also has various partnerships in Hollywood which he chooses with characteristic carefulness and joy
