  Speaking Tomorrow’s Truth to Power.
  Sustainability is going mainstream—but where did the story start? For decades, the traditional capitalist business model required growth at all costs. Business-as-usual guaranteed unsustainability. Now, in contrast, we see growing adoption of greener practices, but where did these ideas come from—and where are the linked movements headed? 
  Drawing on a half century of experience since the early seventies, “Godfather of Sustainability” John Elkington explains how a series of societal pressure waves have helped to transform business, markets, and, ultimately, capitalism. He explains how he came to “tickle” the human sharks of the corporate world, encouraging them to embrace once-unthinkable ways of addressing new social, economic, environmental, and governance priorities.
  John’s candid memoir tracks his colorful journey through youthful misadventures and inspirations to his pioneering work making business sense of sustainability. Written in a knowledgeable, thoughtful, and humorous voice, this witness statement explains—and criticizes—progress to date before sketching a manifesto for those determined to make the global economy more responsible, more resilient, and, crucially, more regenerative.

  From Breakthrough to Blockbuster...

  Beginning in the 1970s, several scientific breakthroughs promised to transform the creation of new medicines. As investors sought to capitalize on these Nobel Prize-winning discoveries, the biotech industry grew to thousands of small companies around the world. Each sought to emulate what the major pharmaceutical companies had been doing for a century or more, but without the advantages of scale, scope, experience, and massive resources. 
   
   
   
  Biotech companies have met the challenge by creating nearly 40% more of the most important treatments for previously unmet medical needs. Moreover, they have done so with much lower overall costs. 
   
   
   
  From Breakthrough to Blockbuster focuses on both the companies themselves and the broader biotech ecosystem that supports them. It paints a portrait of the crucial roles played by academic research, venture capital, contract research organizations, the capital markets, and pharmaceutical companies, demonstrating how a supportive environment enabled the entrepreneurial biotech industry to create novel medicines with unprecedented efficiency. In doing so, it also offers insights for any industry seeking to innovate in uncertain and ambiguous conditions.

  Confiscation, appropriation, nationalisation; this book digs deeply into Nationalization in Modern Russia: Economic and Political ConsequencesSince 2022, Russia has seen a resurgence of nationalization policies, driven by internal political interests, economic sanctions, and the need to mobilize resources for defence and social development. Historically, Russia has led large-scale nationalization efforts, with parallels to post-revolutionary policies of the Soviet era. However, today's circumstances involve a combination of retaliatory measures against foreign sanctions and efforts to consolidate control over key industries. Key drivers include:• Retaliation against Western asset freezes.• Political influences, favouring business groups close to authorities.
  Recent practices involve forced sales of foreign-owned assets. The hundreds of cases of expropriation of foreign businesses happened in 2022-2025, including Shell (oil E&P projects in Russia), Societe Generale Bank (Russia), Raven Russia (the largest warehouses property group in Russia), Carlsberg (the largest beer producer in Russia), Danone (the largest milk products business in Russia) and other large Western companies in Russia. The number of expropriations and asset freezes without is growing, usually without clear legal grounds. The number of cases of state expropriation of businesses from Russian citizens is also growing if these citizens also hold passports of "unfriendly countries" or are residents of such countries. Large airports, chemical and metallurgical companies are examples of the nationalization of businesses owned by Russians living abroad. This study explores:• The motivations behind Russia's modern nationalization wave.• Scenarios for economic consequences and risks of expanded asset seizures.• Comparative historical examples and international precedents.• Strategies for businesses to protect assets in Russia.
  By examining both historical parallels and current trends, this work offers unique insights into how nationalization can reshape Russia’s economy and affect global business relations in the years ahead.
