Quote examples
Nicholas A. Christakis
American Scientist
The social sciences offer equal promise for improving human welfare; our lives can be greatly improved through a deeper understanding of individual and collective behavior. But to realize this promise, the social sciences, like the natural sciences, need to match their institutional structures to today's intellectual challenges.
Quote examples
Jay Samit
American Businessman
State funds, private equity, venture capital, and institutional lending all have their role in the lifecycle of a high tech startup, but angel capital is crucial for first-time entrepreneurs. Angel investors provide more than just cash; they bring years of expertise as both founders of businesses and as seasoned investors.
Quote examples
Ron Williams

Quote examples
Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan

Gary Hamel
American Businessman
In an ideal world, an individual's institutional power would be correlated perfectly with his or her value-add. In practice, this is seldom the case.

Ronald Coase
British Economist
What I have done is to show the importance for the working of the economic system of what may be termed the institutional structure of production.

Pratibha Patil
Indian Politician
