What is capitalism and why is so important to understand how it works? What’s the role of private companies in global human development? Is the balance between the governments and the market broken? Does it need to be fixed? How do we do it? 

The first chapter of the ReImagine Talks tries to find the answers to these questions with an interview with Rebecca Henderson, Professor at Harvard Business School and author of the best-selling book “Reimagining Capitalism in a World on Fire”. Professor Henderson delve also into how modern capitalism can affect our future prosperity, the well-being of humanity and the survival of humanity of the planet itself.

The podcast to challenge the way we think.
