When such a person begins to put his or her idea into practice, it will likely create new jobs and manifestly help boost the local economy—especially in developing countries, where the baseline is lower. (...) In my view, it can be overcome if those endowed with socially-conscious entrepreneurial skills are given the means to leverage cutting-edge scientific and engineering technologies into paradigm-changing products and services. Excellencies, There are various ways for entrepreneurial ideas to be put more effectively in the service of the post- 2015 agenda, including public-private partnerships—which the United Nations has begun to promote over the past several years. (...) It could also empower academics and researchers to pair up with entrepreneurs to field- test green-economy ideas, products and services, as well as provide assistance in bringing them to markets.
