Sustainability and the Future of Work and Entrepreneurship for the Underserved

This book explores the global income disparity from both the format and informal economy perspectives with a special focus on post-COVID outcomes and highlights different workforce and entrepreneurial segments with a specific focus on their COVID-19 experience, adaptions, and lessons learned on resilience, growth, and sustainability. This book also offers recommendations from thought leaders on the needed collaborations between industry, academy, government, and the community to improve inclusive outcomes for the future of work and entrepreneurship.

While many scholars, governments, corporations have talked the talk of developing an inclusive and equitable society, few have achieved the goal. This book highlights marginalized labor and entrepreneurial market segments and review strategies used to prepare for technology changes globally. The chapters provide a series of recommendation by thought leaders that may aid in growing and sustaining a more inclusive global society.
