The Initiative
Making Prosperity brings together companies, start-ups and entrepreneurs, governments and NGOs to create an ecosystem designed to enable new businesses to be built, new jobs to be created, and new solutions to be unlocked in support of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

We may not live for hundreds of years, but the products of our creativity can leave a legacy long after we are gone
