Shared Value Initiative India: November – December 2016
Dear Colleague,

It is a delight for me to share the details about Shared Value Summit that was organized by Shared Value Initiative India, Shared Value Initiative, Institute for Competitiveness (India), & India Council on Competitiveness. The summit scheduled on November 18, 2016, at The Leela, Ambience Island, Gurgaon witnessed prominent thinkers and leaders from the government, corporates, academia, global institutions and social enterprises. They shared their perspectives, experiences and knowledge on the significant role of businesses in society. They also provided many real-life examples of business model changes happening around us and how it is creating value for the businesses, society and environment.

The summit had exciting panel discussions and deliberations on topics like “Shared Value Orientation as a Project or Enterprise. What works better?”; “Young Entrepreneurs Making a Difference”; “Inclusive Business Ideas and Challenges of Scale – Role of Large Corporates and Story Telling Session. Some of the highlights of the summit are mentioned below.

We always look forward to your continuous engagement with the initiative.

Wishing everyone Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Regards
Sandeep Goyal
CEO, Shared Value Initiative India

Opinion Pieces: Shared Value in Media

Keynote Address by Bibek Debroy, Member, NITI Aayog
The inaugural address by delivered by Bibek Debroy, Member of NITI Aayog, who shared his views on development and governance in India. Citing examples from history, he explained that broader participation from citizens is always needed for governance to improve. For instance, the Consumer Protection Act 1986 was an outcome of repeated demands from NGOs and civil society. Likewise, even though it is the job of NITI Aayog to improve entrepreneurship throughout India, the government cannot do it alone. An inclusive approach involving all stakeholders is needed if the business environment in India has to change.

Keynote by Justin Bakule, Executive Director, Shared Value Initiative
Justin Bakule, Executive Director of Shared Value Initiative, followed up these arguments with a strong message to of the large presence of business leaders that they had a huge opportunity of taking up leadership responsibility and bringing about social change in uncertain times especially when there is a global move against globalisation as evidenced by votes for Brexit and Trump. He argued that lack of partnerships and collaborations among companies as well as restricted focus on strategic planning towards social issues that intersect with their business are major barriers to the adoption of shared value.

Keynote by Anil K. Gupta, Professor, IIM Ahmedabad
Prof. Anil K. Gupta from IIM Ahmedabad pointed out that creative communities and hungry corporations drive the world. He expressed surprise over the fact that Indian companies have grown less hungry for frugal innovation with time in contrast to major MNCs. He appealed companies to map unmet needs and look for innovative ways to address them. It is time to give innovators the needed voice, visibility, and velocity.

Keynote by Mohammad Yunus, Nobel Peace Prize Winner
Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus followed up Prof. Gupta’s remarks with examples of several efforts on transforming the Bangladesh landscape with his innovative models of social entrepreneurship and pointed out how profitable business models are more sustainable solutions to societal issues than philanthropy or CSR.
