(Chers amis français, la version traduite vous attend un peu plus loin :-)
A social business is a non-loss, non-dividend company designed to address a social objective.
This concept has been defined by Pr. Muhammad Yunus in his book Creating a World without Poverty - Social Business and the Future of Capitalism. Pr. Yunus is the founder of Grameen Bank, the first Microfinance organization: in 2006, he awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, "for his effort to create economic and social development.”
On the 4th of February, in Paris (France), almost 3000 people gathered around Pr.Yunus to discuss Social Business initiatives. Before this event, volunteers decided to build a fresco to promote this way to design a new capitalism.
