How can business balance its immediate duty to shareholders with long-term contributions to equity of opportunity?

Business, government, civil society leaders and community participants recognize the mutual responsibilities required for cooperation among stakeholders, inclusive of nature and the environment. Ongoing crises and our global response offer a glimpse of what’s possible when the world comes together on pressing issues of universal concern. How might we build solidarity across sectors and stakeholders to animate equitable futures for all people?

​At the 2023 Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos, GHR CEO Amy Goldman hosted Azza Karam of Religions for Peace International, Stientje van Veldhoven of World Resources Institute, and Shelley Stewart III of McKinsey & Company in conversation on building solidarity in an interdependent world.

Making Dreams a Reality: The Community Entrepreneurship Program

1/6/2023

From The Opus College of Business and Schulze School of Entrepreneurship Newsroom:

"Brianna Edwards has a big, bold and flavorful dream.

The creator behind a line of low-sodium spice mixes, LOV3 IT S3ASONING, Edwards wants to see her bottles on store shelves across the country. To get there, she’s turned to the University of St. Thomas and the Schulze School of Entrepreneurship.

Edwards is part of the very first cohort of the Community Entrepreneurship Program. The 10-month, hands-on program, offered in conjunction with the Small Business Development Center, supports aspiring Twin Cities entrepreneurs as they develop big ideas and prepare for life as small business owners. 

'I’m a really big dreamer,” Edwards said. 'I’ve had to learn to take it step by step. This program helped me figure out that this is a marathon not a sprint.'"

Through our Twin Cities Racial Equity (TCRE) initiative, GHR works to be of service to and in partnership with Black, Indigenous, and people of color, (BI-POC) businesses and communities in the development and acquisition of assets that advance and provide access to economic opportunity and community development.
