Acclaimed author and futurist Rob Salkowitz in his new book, Young World Shining: Dispatches from the Expanding Frontiers of Innovation, shows how digital technology is empowering billions of youth across Asia, Africa, Latin America and the Middle East to spark an explosion of entrepreneurship. Salkowitz brings his trademark combination of analysis, advocacy, reporting and tactical guidance to help business leaders understand the world's most dynamic new markets. Young World Shining combines new and unpublished material with insights that Salkowitz contributed to Forbes, Fast Company, Bloomberg BusinessWeek, McKinsey Quarterly and others.

Young World Shining follows up on Salkowitz's influential and prophetic Young World Rising: How Youth, Technology and Entrepreneurship are Changing the World from the Bottom Up (John Wiley & Sons, 2010), now required reading in many business and education schools.
