Can we marry entrepreneurship and innovation to wellness BEFORE we innovate ourselves into more poor health like the last century has given us? If we had more wellness consumers today, this question would be answered through the marketplace, but we do not yet have a mainstream medicine that tells patients/consumers enough about WHY they are sick. Until this becomes the case, public health must rely on our innovators/entrepreneurs to 'do the right thing' and ask themselves what impact their idea/product/service has on human health. If the entrepreneurs are forward-thinking enough, if they are willing to go beyond CSR (corporate social responsibility), they recognize that it is just smart business to consider what their customers may one day realize about the health impact of their product. In this new age of instant information, business becomes very vulnerable to the speedy impact of consumer awareness.
