  • ability to raise capital at below market rates due to the ethical investment industry
  • easier access to publicity

Famous quotes containing the words advantages of, advantages, social and/or enterprise:

    When the manipulations of childhood are a little larceny, they may grow and change with the child into qualities useful and admire in the grown-up world.
