Cohan and Rangan extract best practices that will allow businesses to understand not only the impact of the global economy, but also give them the ability to capitalize on the rising wave of globalization.
Their video — http://youtu.be/jCU6xYVWLJs — shows how building healthy Entrepreneurial Ecosystems in countries around the world is the best hope for rejuvenating the global economy.
Their EE model enriches the business environment of a region by cultivating conditions that increase entrepreneurial activity to spur growth of products, services and jobs.
They outline 4 key factors necessary to maximize the use of capital to drive economic development and job creation:
-Financial Markets
-Corporate Governance
-Human Capital
