Designs, Inc.; Notes; IndexA new brand of entrepreneurs has arrived on the business scene, carrying with them a whole new set of values. They possess a sense of mission - to be socially responsible, protect the planet, and do the right thing for all of their stakeholders. Rather than focus exclusively on financial gain, they aim to achieve a balance between profits and one or more causes of their choosing. In fact, they view for-profit entrepreneurship as a vehicle for social change.
