Summary

Description

Nobel Peace Prize winner Muhammad Yunus championed his concept of social business as a way to release deprived people from the ‘prison’ of welfare at a special summit hosted by the University of Salford on Saturday 18 May.

The Bangladeshi economist and ‘world’s banker to the poor’ urged more than 600 people at the Building Social Business event to use business for social and community benefit, freeing people from a welfare system created by institutions and a society which locks people in to dependency.

Yunus also praised the University for announcing the creation of the Salford Centre for Social Business, a new body which will work in partnership with local, national and international groups and organisations to develop social business research, teaching and projects.
