About this audiobook
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
As you read this summary, you will discover the Middle East from a perspective you may not have suspected. Christopher Schroeder, with his experience as an entrepreneur, introduces you to the entrepreneurial world of a region of the world known more for its political instability than for its economic dynamism. Yet he shows that this region has nothing to envy to the rest of the world when it comes to entrepreneurship and innovation.
You will also learn :
- that entrepreneurship can help change the world;
- how the changes at work emanate above all from individual initiatives;
- why the Arab Spring is a symptom of profound upheavals in society;
- that the businesses created in the Middle East are no different from those in Silicon Valley;
- that Islam is far from being incompatible with entrepreneurship.
In spite of the various Arab springs, little has changed at the political level in the Middle East. It is a different story when it comes to entrepreneurship and access to technology. Schroeder has witnessed in recent years a movement in this direction, on the part of investors who dare to move beyond uncertainty and instability. A second revolution is underway. It will transform the region into a center of economic opportunity.
