The Rise of the Meaningful Economy is bulls eye in putting words to what I personally experienced working with our global leaders from all continents and sectors (corporate, political, civil society and philanthropists). They came together, year after year, because of shared values in the emerging Meaningful Economy. The Rise of the Meaningful Economy offers powerful insights for corporations to find new ways to create value. It also provides new perspectives for the wealthy and the influential on how to use their resources for the benefit of everyone.
Marilia Bezarra, Former Commitments Director, Clinton Global Initiative

“Man’s greatest folly is that we ARE our minds and are separate and above the rest; add a healthy dose of money to this delusion and you get a toxic potion.

Lawrence Ford, Founder and CEO, Conscious Capital Wealth Management
“The Rise of the Meaningful Economy identifies with the beginning of the shift we are starting to see in humanity – cutting across generational boundaries and societal beliefs. The value not only comes from the wealth we create, but also from how we invest our time, our resources, our buying power, the people we surround ourselves with and how we plan our futures; all a set of currencies that are based around higher level of consciousness.”
Sergio Fernandez de Cordova, Chairman, PVBLIC Foundation
