UK India Business Council urges youth to promote social enterprises

Mumbai: The changing world economic dynamics is giving rise to the need for people who can understand a larger milieu and global business enterprises are in need of such people, says Patricia Hewitt, chair, UK India Business Council.

"As the global economic dynamics is changing from West to East, business enterprises need people who can connect with India, China or Brazil," she said at a session on 'UK and India - Harnessing the Potential of Tomorrow's leaders' organised by Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and Young Indians (Yi).

Hewitt urged for social inclusion and socially inclusive capitalism. She also said the government must promote social enterprises for social purposes.

Young Indians (Yi), a part of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), aims at creating a platform for young Indians to realise the dream of a developed nation.

Yi has more than 1300 direct members in 24 city chapters. Yi has 160 members in 3 corporate chapters and engages another 12,000 members through its district chapter, Farmer Nets and Student Nets.
