be changing faster than we can keep up.
@RealityDrop http://clmtr.lt/c/Bxl0cg0fc?t=tw …”

3. Worst in 500 years!!

4. 1. Why? A necessity
Economic: unemployment
• 6 M unemployed, 20% active population, 50% youth (January 2013)
Social: unequal opportunities
• Revenues from 10% wealthiest = 10 x 10% poorest’ (OECDE 2010)
Environmental: unsustainability of civilization
• 90 environmental indicators, only progress in 4 (GEO5, June 2012)
• Max. Temperatures up to 55ºC in Spain (IPCC, AR5, Sept. 2013)

5. Mission
To propell, promote & maximize the impact of eco-entrepreneurs,
change agents towards a more sustainable and fair society, through
replicable, self-sufficient and empowering business models.

6. Against “entrepreneurial mortality”
High mortality rate among SMES and entrepreneurs:
• 80% SMEs in Spain die before 5 years, 90% before 10 [January 2014]
• Many entrepreneurs don’t even start (“pre-birth mortality” not in stats)
