Inclusive Capitalism will be the next tsunami and foundation for the future. It has already begun!

Inclusive Capitalism will be the next key foundation for the future of capitalism as we know it today. So what will be the difference as I have been writing in my blogs ove the last few years and why is this important. Because of what we see today globally from financial meltdowns in the trillions to socio-economic divides across the world.

So what could inclusive capitalism potentially mean for world;

i. Micro (Bottom-up and Distributed micro economies/societies included through aggregation)+ Macro (Centralized capacities today such as in manufacturing)

ii. Assets will be both owned by entities (land) and owned by local communities (farm land) creating a new asset class

iii Business models will include the entire profit pool being integrated via microfinancing + microinsurance + microdebt + demand-suppl micromaket aggregation

iv. Free Market hybrid models with government continuing to be a catalyst (such as in the United States or other economies)

This has the potential to unleash socio-economic-sustainable-renewable growth on a scale not seen in the first few hundred years or capitalism. This is a tsunami in the making with creative destruction that has just begun.

I am part of a team implementing such an initiative as a company and our start has been really good based on inclusive capitalism.

Mission: Empowering a Community Footprint in the First Mile To Leverage Renewable Energy and Marketplaces for a Billion People

Investment Philosophy and business model: Inclusive Capitalism and Community Intermediation

Business: First Mile Energy Microutility + Microfinance Services + Marketplace Services
i) Microutility for Renewable Energy as a Service ~ Demand-Supply Chain

ii) Microfinance services ~ Demand-Supply financial linkages for energy & commodities (Agriculture microfinance + microinsurance, Commodity microfinance + microinsurance, Community microfinance + microinsurance)

iii) First Mile Community Marketplaces ~ Unlock economic value through demand-supply aggregated brick & mortar discovery, fulfillment, collaboration, community and commerce
