The current overcoming of societal and environmental limits makes existing models obsolete.
Conceive new models implies abandoning certain paradigms that focus solely on centered on economic and financial indicators alone. And to replace them with a fair balance between wealth creation and social, societal and ecological impact.
Change requires first and foremost a cultural transformation. Individuals and companies must reflect on the what they are willing to give up.
Research, communication and collective intelligence are essential elements to catalyze this change and drive positive momentum.
Looking for impact not enough. We must create an answer to a need of the economic agents to generate profit and sustain the activity.
Economic growth is necessary to generate the means to change things. But this growth must be controlled and remain within the ecological and social limits of the Planet.
Technology will play an important role in the transition. However, today we do not have the societal or ecological means to complete some of the advances underway.
The transition to new models will require changing our vision of the technological revolution and adapting its speed to the limits of the World and the collateral social impacts.
