Business success should be measured not just by profit, but by social impact as well. If bright-minded entrepreneurs tackled bigger problems and global markets, not only would their potential to achieve big profit AND societal impact be much higher - they could also lead a more inspired and passionate life.


The Founder Institute previously held an interview that tackled these complex topics, hosted by Adeo Ressi (Founder & CEO of the Founder Institute), and featured special guest Kimbal Musk.


Kimbal Musk is on the board for Tesla Motors, SpaceX, and Chipotle Mexican Grill. His personal mission is to strengthen communities through food.


Discussion topics in this video include:


The various business opportunities where entrepreneurs can start impactful companies
How to identify the "big idea" that you are passionate about solving
How to create an impactful vision, define your mission, and articulate them to the masses
How to navigate the funding landscape for social and mission-driven companies
Why food is an impactful and trillion dollar business opportunity
