If we describe our existing companies as profit-maximizing businesses (PMBs), the new kind of business might be called social business. Entrepreneurs will set up social businesses not to achieve limited personal gain but to pursue specific social goals.” Source: Yunus, Muhammad (2007) Creating a World Without Poverty: Social Business and the Future of Capitalism.
