「企業有兩種，一種是想著要賺錢的企業，另一種是想改變世界的企業。」
                                                          - 諾貝爾和平獎得主 穆罕默德‧尤努斯博士

“There are two kinds of businesses in the world, one is a business which makes money, and the other solves the problems of the world.”

― Muhammad Yunus

金融權威著作《停滯的年代》預測：「新貧族」年輕人遭逢生存困境，新一代的年輕人僅靠工作勉強維持生計、收入無永久保障、無法儲蓄買房成了普遍現象。資本主義極度發展下，全球貧富差距百年來已達前所未聞的驚人程度！尤努斯博士大聲疾呼「財富過分集中可以被遏止，也不得不遏止！」
 

台灣尤努斯基金會是全球唯一以尤努斯為名的基金會，是尤努斯博士直接授權的國際公益組織。尤努斯博士希望以台灣為基地推動三零任務：「零貧戶、零失業、零淨碳排放」，再影響各地的華人及其他族群，尊重性別、族群，保護環境，建立均富世界。
