"The World Entrepreneurship Forum Guide to Planet Entrepreneur: Business Success Around the World pairs real-world examples of global business changes with insights into how these changes hold wide-ranging and sweeping impacts for everyone's future, and is recommended by any interested in the future of global commerce. From new routes to financing such as crowdfunding and the new self-employed revolution happening now to how innovation is being re-invented and how big business is in a new position of power in fostering 'green' practices, this collection covers a range of entrepreneurial changes taking place around the world. The result is a powerful predictor of what is to come as well as an exploration of what is happening in global business communities today, and deserves a place in any serious business book collection."
