Businesses must invest in products and people in order to create new wealth.

If a rich person invests in a business, either directly or through stock purchases, it means business can grow and hire more people.

Many entrepreneurs, and the venture investors who back them, seek to build billion-dollar companies.

Investing in management means building communication systems, business processes, feedback, and routines that let you scale the business and team as efficiently as possible.

Businesses can lead with their values and make money, too. You don't have to simply be purely profit-driven. You can integrate social and environmental concerns into a business, be a caring business, be a generous business and still do very well financially.

There are immense numbers of potential entrepreneurs who can start their own businesses among the people who are working in large organisations.

Companies that grow create wealth. This, in turn, allows people to have jobs that create more growth and more wealth. It's a virtuous cycle.

Entrepreneurs are like visionaries. One of the ways they run forward is by viewing the thing they're doing as something that's going to be the whole world.

Your initial instincts about investments and people are usually correct. We do a lot of due diligence in this business and most of the time it comes out where we started.

Growth and profit are a product of how people work together.
