Giving advice to new business can spawn the leaders of tomorrow, while helpful advice directed to those who are struggling can help their business get back on their feet and perhaps closer to their original vision. But among all this advice is often an ideal, something that a business must look forward to or take inspiration from in order to develop in the best manner.
This is why it can be worthwhile to shine a light on companies that are making the world a better place, those that are fulfilling vital services and functions to make things better for all of us, to set societies on certain trends, or to refine their products to become compatible with the modern day, and the needs of the modern consumer. These businesses can serve as a shining light to us, for us to take inspiration from, or to simply appreciate. We might look at the leadership structure, the vision, the marketing, or the positive change in their development, and try to see just how worthwhile they are.
Let us do that work for you, by exploring the following three companies that are making the world a better place:
Elections – Smartmatic
While it’s never officially revealed, there can be an understanding that in some countries, elections might not be the fair democratic processes they are known to be. We won’t list the countries or even go into specifics, but this does seem to be a problem in various locations, and it can cause true civil unrest and a waning sense of interest in democracy. Even first world countries have been susceptible to this in recent years, and you need only look at the news cycle to see this mentioned time and time again. Thankfully, companies such as Smartmatic Philippines are using their digital verification systems to ensure that identity registrations are well purposed, and that all votes count, adding further legitimacy to chosen representatives. As the future moves on, it’s not hard to see how this will become the much-needed norm, potentially helping us all enjoy a more verifiable and less-contested election cycle.
Energy & Health – Bill Gates
Bill Gates is known throughout the world for his contributions to the computing field, but that’s hardly the extent of his resume. Under the Bill Gates foundation, he has recently been contributing vast sums of money to pathogen research in order to defend against the ever-present development of bacterias and their tendency to grow into hard diseases. This is especially needed considering the worrying trend of anti-vaccination and antibiotic abuse in the agricultural sector, leading to the strengthening and return of some extremely worrisome bacteria trends. Not only that, but his recent contributions to Nuclear energy pave the way to future renewable use, offering to pay billions of his own money should the US congress accept his plans. Keep at it, Bill.
The Future Of Food – Aspire Food Group
Aspire know that the needs of our planet are not sustainable. Of course, the vegan diet has gained traction for completely eviscerating the use of factory farmed meats and animal products, which are extremely hard on our environment. Aspire suggest that smaller insects with high protein are the food of the future, as much can be made with minimal environmental cost. They also use robotics and data collection in their growth of farms, extracting important animal proteins for a range of substitute foods. We’re not quite at the level of lab-grown-meat, but we’re getting there, and this is where companies like Aspire are contributing.
With these three inspirations, who knows if you couldn’t also contribute to the future?
