Author and innovation expert Alec Ross shares his thoughts on innovation, opportunity, and knowing when and where to go deep in life. In his new book The Raging 2020s: Companies, Countries, People- And the Fight for Our Future, Alec discusses big ideas that can innovate the world.
Alec proposes a new approach to capitalism that will work better for a broader set of stakeholders and not just shareholders. Hypothesizing that if the right innovative changes aren’t implemented globally, Alec believes the frustration of the masses will continue to grow and rage on.
