Carl Schramm: Entrepreneurial Capitalism: Engine for Innovation and Prosperity

Entrepreneurial Capitalism: Engine for Innovation and Prosperity


Carl Schramm, Ph.D., President and CEO, Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation


Some people think that capitalism is the culprit in the economic crisis, that market excesses got us into this mess and only a firm regulatory hand will get us out. Schramm says that’s wrong. He explains why capitalism did not cause the problem but does offer the solution. His answer is entrepreneurial capitalism, risk-taking innovation that creates jobs, wealth and life-enhancing products and discoveries.
